When did this ridiculous rule get passed?
To be on the conservative side, I'd say it's been this way for at least 25
years.
All new houses have to have 2 stairways from the basement?
NO. Only if the space is used as living space, then there must be other
means of egress. Stairs/windows/door......pick your choice. I believe
windows have to be no more than 4 ft. off the ground, and at least
2'x4'.... I'm sure someone will come along and give the exact sizing, but
that figure is stuck in my head for some reason.
