If a design is going down a hillside adjacent to a building at 9.7% over 75 feet. Steps with 5' separation, 8' long with a 6" drop are designed. Does it require a handrail? Thank you for the help.
OP says 8'-0" long stairHe doesn’t say the steps are 8 ft wide.

This is how I understood the OP as well.He noted, "Steps with 5' separation." IMHO, I think the 8' is implied to mean the width.
Im not ready to agree with you ... but I went back and read more carefully, tried to do a hand sketch .... can’t figure out the 5 and 8 numbers.He noted, "Steps with 5' separation." IMHO, I think the 8' is implied to mean the width.
Stairs are 8-ft wide, risers are 6-in tall, and riser/steps are spaced 5-ft (i.e. 5-ft landings).Im not ready to agree with you ... but I went back and read more carefully, tried to do a hand sketch .... can’t figure out the 5 and 8 numbers.
