Are Power Plants subjected to building codes?
(OP)
Designing a steel stair and came up that the height between floors is 18 ft, OSHA doesnot requirea landing and I can run the stringers between two levels with 18 feet vertical distance however, IBC may require landing? What is the governing OSHA since I am dealing with an industrial building or IBC?
Anywhere in IBC says about industrial buildings?
Thanks

Plus, an 18' flight of stairs without an intermediate landing is not going to be comfortable for the users...

But we don't always follow IBC in factory type buildings. For instance, if we have a tank in a building, the stairs up to the tank are not for fire egress, so we follow OSHA. This allows shorter runs and higher risers.

We're stuck with our San Onofre plant (delightfully named "Songs" for San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station) that can't be used to generate power anymore and they have to find something to do with it, besides being the West Coast tribute to Dolly Parton.

In Nevada, I had to redesign 3 flights of stairs in an industrial building (essentially non-occupied process building) because the risers where 7.125" tall (instead of 7.0" or less).
