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 173/sj inches with no more than thr&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.

As referenced in the previous data, all models had acceptable results. No Edge Radius was
reported due to the fact that all tread depths were greater than eleven (11) Inches. These
results are based on requirements of the International Residential Code, riodda Residential
Building Code. These are the two (2) codes directly resourced but not limited to only these
two (2).
If we can answer any questions concerning this report or be any further assistance feel free to
