About this detail

Stairway identification signage requirements specify layout and dimensions for Sign Type 1 and Sign Type 2 assemblies. Sign Type 1 requires a minimum width of twelve inches and an eighteen-inch minimum height, featuring block letters with one-quarter inch and three-quarter inch strokes to designate floor levels, stair enclosures, and upper or lower terminus conditions. Raised characters must be duplicated in Braille complying with California Building Code Section 11B-703.4, including a raised five-pointed star at the discharge level. Mounting height is set at sixty inches from the bottom of the sign to the finished floor.
