Under the residential code, what is the MAXIMUM permitted riser height for a stairway serving a dwelling?

d.7 3/4 inches
Giải thích
The residential code caps riser height at 7 3/4 inches for stairs within dwellings. 6 and 7 inches are allowable but not the maximum; 7 1/2 inches is close but still below the code ceiling. Note the commercial building code uses a lower 7-inch maximum, so the value depends on occupancy.
