In a fully sprinklered building with MNS, I have a corridor a 125 cm wide corridor, with three steps in the middle, connecting two levels with a small elevation difference.
I am calculating the capacity at 0.15 inch (3.8 mm) per person.
Do the three steps require adjusting the capacity factor to 0.2 inch (5.1 mm) use for stairways?
If yes, I should replace the steps with a ramp.
Where do we stop counting steps as "means of egress components other than stairways" from IBC ed 2021, 1005.3.2 ?
