less than 60 inches off of the landing floor, around the perimeter of
the stairway landing shall be tempered glass.

inches than above 60 inches. Someone moving a large piece of furniture
up the stairway or someone tripping or falling down into these areas.
Tempered glass is designed to break into small pieces, lowering the
victim's chances of greater physical harm or injuries.
