I inspected this home and have questions regarding this beautiful staircase.

I am familiar with tread width requirements and spacing between balusters, but what are the current codes regarding open risers and nosing overhanging the treads?

Thanks

Riser opening less than 4". If the risers are solid the nosing shall be between 3/4" - 1-1/4".
