Description
This determination considered the compliance of an alternative solution proposing the use of a single handrail on the inner face of a secondary private spiral stairway.
The determination discussed the relative angle of the handrail and the pitch line of the stairs, and whether the handrail was graspable and would provide sufficient grip to arrest a fall.
