Here's how to find what actually applies to your project. Wyoming has **no confirmed statewide residential code edition**. Adoption is local: cities and counties choose and amend their own IRC edition, and there’s no single statewide instrument to point to. There’s no one figure set to cite here. Where a local jurisdiction has adopted the IRC, a house stair typically follows the standard figures — 7¾ in max riser, 10 in min tread, 6 ft 8 in headroom, 36 in min width, 34–38 in handrails, 36 in guards, the 30 in guard trigger and the 4 in sphere — see the [US stair & guard rules](https://www.chippy.tools/building-codes/us/stairs/stair-and-barrier-requirements/). But treat those as a starting point only: **confirm the edition and any amendments** with your city or county building department before you build. ## Adoption status Local Current code in force IRC (edition not confirmed statewide) - local adoption Next edition — Adoption / transition local adoption [Official source →](https://iccsafe.org/advocacy/adoptions-map/Wyoming) Last verified 2026-07-28 No state-specific variations recorded yet for this jurisdiction.
