Stairwells: Risers and Treads

[LindaDeavers]

My boss called and asked me the BOCA for step risers in Arlington County. I read him what it says in the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code (USBC) effective date September 15, 2000, 11. Change CABO subsection 314.2 to read . . . and in the Virginia Construction Code, Part I of the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code 2006 effective May 1, 2008, 13. Change Section R311.5.3.1 to read: R311.5.3.1 Riser Height and 14. Change Section R311.5.3.2 to read: R3115.3.2 Tread depth . . .

I hope these were the most recent. He was in a hurry and these were all I could find. He is giving a proposal for commercial stairwells. I made copies of both of these and put them in his in-box. Did I give him the right information? Please advise. Thank you.
