We have a project Power Control Center (PCR)
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 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.

My last question is that my case is qualify for Section 1005.7 deals with door encroachment and egress width and capacity? Thanks anyway
 
Any clues? Thanks
 
I believe the requirements of 1005.7 fall into the same discussion we had above, particularly the post with this time stamp: 2 Oct 20 15:39
