RE: IBC and international codes
It's also important to understand that the IBC is NOT a building code - it's a model building code. That means it is essentially worthless until adopted by the authority having jurisdiction. In the US, that means that your state, county or city building department (depending upon how government authority and sovereignty is proportioned in the state, because it can vary) has passed a law referencing the IBC (or other I-codes) and making them law. Not sure how that works where you are, but I imagine there would be something similar.
All that said - the principals in the IBC could certainly be applied in other countries (and frequently are). The physics governing the performance of structures under load doesn't change based on geopolitical boundaries. You just have to understand how they fit together legally, and how the standards applicable to materials in your area compare to those in the US and how the codes interact.

and we will built the stair & platform at the 3'(W)x 7'(H) exterior door.
So we would like to know what is the minimum length and width of the platform (see red circles below) to comply with IBC-2015/ Section 1011.6 building code
when the door is opened onto the landing at 90 degree and the building serves an occupant load of five or less because our building type for storage of the electrical equipment and just have a few technicians/controls guys to monitor.
