Scruff, please ask your builder, "Which version" of the building regs is he referencing...and which part....
as the 150mm is a MINIMUM height.... and as for the other dimensions, they all depend upon their application. such as domestic, institutional, industrial etc etc etc...
therefore LEC....
document "K" (2013 rev) Part 1 , table 1.1 (pg14-15) states private stairs, not accessible to the public.... rise 150MM MINIMIUM to a 220mm MAXIMUM.. and going 220mm MINIMUM with a 300mm MAXIMUM...
sorry if I seem a tad rectal, but I spend lots of money each year/ when ever a new amendment is released to keep my regs fully up to date... I hate being advised incorrectly by damn stupid architects and council officials... whom only seem to whoosh over the basic's of any reg, and do not look it to ALL of the options if, X Y or Z apply...
I have even tripped (sorry for the relevant pun) up recently an architect,, whom it turned out was 2 sets of updates behind the world... I trust this helps people...
