![]() ![]() Some local codes have different restrictions than accepted standards because of local conditions such as danger of flooding or earthquake. Though many local codes are based on certain national standards, there is no single national code that regulates stairs in all areas. You must be sure that any stair you plan, build, or buy will meet your local codes. Stairs are built according to basic rules and principles intended to make them safe to use. Because the location of railings and balusters, width and depth of tread, and height of risers affect the ease and safety of using a stair, these dimensions are regulated by building codes.
