R311.4


Section R311.4 is titled 'Vertical Egress' and covers the requirements for means of egress between habitable levels of a dwelling. The purpose of this section is to assure that there is an efficient and easy to use system for traversing between habitable levels of the dwelling, which allows for quick exiting and emergency response.

The model shows a vertical fixed ladder as the only means of travel between habitable rooms, which is not a ramp or stairway required by this section, making this construction non-compliant with this section of the code.
