        "text": "Key design considerations for safe and durable exterior stairs include proper rise and run dimensions for comfortable ascent/descent, adequate handrail height and grip, and the use of weather-resistant, slip-resistant materials. Correct drainage is essential to prevent water accumulation and material deterioration. Additionally, ensuring the foundation is stable and properly connected to the main structure is critical for long-term durability. We emphasize designs that prioritize safety, longevity, and adherence to local building codes.",
