Can stair riser height change?

Postby Archer40 » Tue Dec 05, 2017 10:04 pm

Coach, I am not sure if you can use different riser height for different flights of stairs. For example, if I have 2 flights of stairs connected by a landing, can I use 6” high riser for the first flight and 7” high riser for the second flight?

Also, the riser height does not have to be a round number (such as 5", 6" or 7"), right? As long as the height is between 4"-7" it should be fine? For example, if I draw 9 risers to reach 60" height, each riser will be 6.67" and it is automatically calculated by the software, right?

Thank you!
