Re: Handrail
Rick,
The hand rail only needs to be on one side, but the right side does not go all the way to the top and neither does the left side. So....both are incorrect IMHO.
As I see it, it violates IRC 03:
311.5.6.2 Continuity.
Handrails for stairways shall be continuous for the full length of the flight, from a point directly above the top riser of the flight to a point directly above lowest riser of the flight. Handrail ends shall be returned or shall terminate in newel posts or safety terminals. Handrails adjacent to a wall shall have a space of not less than 1 1/2 inch (38 mm) between the wall and the handrails.
