The code for determining the rise and run of stairs is typically found in building regulations and standards. It specifies the maximum and minimum measurements for the height of each step (rise) and the depth of each step (run) to ensure safety and comfort for users.
Normally 7" rise and 11" run.
The recommended maximum outdoor step height for safety and accessibility is typically around 7 inches.

The recommended standard step rise for staircases is typically between 7 and 8 inches to ensure safety and comfort for users.
The rise of a step should be around 7". When computing the number of rise units, a carpenter will divide the total rise by the number 7. This will give a starting point in determining the number of individual step risers.
The formula for calculating the slope of a staircase is Rise divided by Run. This means you divide the height of each step (Rise) by the depth of each step (Run) to find the slope of the staircase.

You use the two scale's,leg's, of the square to layout the rise and run of your stair's. Rise = the height of each step example 7.5". Run = the length of each step example 12".
