Formule
Minimum landing length ≥ stair width. L-shaped: length = 1.5 × width. U-shaped: length = width = 2 × stair width.
Questions fréquemment posées
What is the minimum landing size?
The minimum landing depth and width must be at least equal to the stair width in most building codes.
Why are L-shaped landings larger?
