Test Methodology:
Mr.Hughes,we performed dimensional testing on the fiberglass stairs that you manufacturer
to verify the compliance with state and federal cosies for stairways. This testing consisted of
measuring the overall height,width,length,length of rise,and length of run.
All stairs tested had to meet a predetermined test procedure.This test procedure referenced
the minimum stair width to be not less than thirty six(36)Inches.The maximum rise of seven
and three quarter{73/s)inches with no more than three eights(%)inch variations.The
minimum run being no less than nine(9)Inches with no more than three-eights(%)variation.
The following chart shows the model and data collected during testing.
