Know the maximum allowed riser height to determine the rise and run of stairs. For a standard straight run of stairs in a residence, the maximum stair riser height is 7 3/4 inches, and the minimum tread depth is 10 inches. The risers is the vertical part of a step, and a tread is the horizontal part that you walk on. To calculate how many risers are needed, measure the floor-to-floor height in inches, then divide the height by 7 3/4. The result will likely be a fraction, so always round up.
(the typical rise per step) to get 8.14. Round down to get the steps: eight. To then determine the actual rise, divide the 57 in. by the eight steps to get 7 1/8 in. per step. You can use that information to find the total run of the staircase--or how much horizontal distance it will cover as it climbs.
