This step demonstrates a correctly designed stairway where all steps, including the connection to the upper deck, uniformly feature a 1-inch nosing. Each tread depth is consistently 11 inches, measured from the front of the nosing on one step to the front of the nosing on the step below. This design adheres to building codes for consistent tread depth, ensuring safety and compliance.
