The 'nosing' of a tread is typically 25-30mm(1-1 1/4").This measurement is taken from the face of the riser. The 2006 International Residential Code (IRC) states the information about stairs below. You should check with your local building department to verify applicability. R311.5.3 Stair treads and risers. R311.5.3.1 Riser height. The maximum riser height shall be 7¾ inches (196 mm). The riser shall be measured vertically between leading edges of the adjacent treads. The greatest riser height within any flight of stairs shall not exceed the smallest by more than 3/8 inch (9.5 mm). R311.5.3.2 Tread depth. The minimum tread depth shall be 10 inches (254 mm). The tread depth shall be measured horizontally between the vertical planes of the foremost projection of adjacent treads and at a right angle to the tread's leading edge. The greatest tread depth within any flight of stairs shall not exceed the smallest by more than 3/8 inch (9.5 mm). Winder treads shall have a minimum tread depth of 10 inches (254 mm) measured as above at a point 12 inches (305 mm) from the side where the treads are narrower. Winder treads shall have a minimum tread depth of 6 inches (152 mm) at any point. Within any flight of stairs, the largest winder tread depth at the 12 inch (305 mm) walk line shall not exceed the smallest by more than 3/8 inch (9.5 mm). Hope this helps! TL North, CBO

Don't tread on me! To tread upon the ground. Many people tread on he sidewalk each day.
Nosing is not taken into account when calculating initial stair set-out, but added later. The rise of a residential stair in the US is 8" and the run is 10" with a nose of 1". This means that the tread depth is 10", the height from stair to stair is 8" and the tread sticks out 1" over the the tread below. It is still 10" from front to back. A commercial stair is 7" rise, 11" run, 1" nose.

Your run should always be longer than the rise. Current International Residential Code states the rise cannot be greater than 7-3/4" and the run cannot be less than 10". A common stair stringer has a 7" rise with a 11" run. rip your stair tread to 12" , this will over hang the run on the stringer by 1", when you install your toe kicks, use 3/4" material and you will wind up with a 1/4" overhang on each tread. Of course there are different ways to do this, but I believe this is most common.

The tread is what you step on, the riser is the part going up. Rise=riserThe tread is what you step on. The riser is the upright piece your toe hits.
Depending on location and vehicle size, tread depth must be at least 2/32 inch or greater.
The average tread depth of a new radial tire is typically around 10/32 to 11/32 of an inch. This tread depth provides good traction and performance while allowing for gradual wear over the lifespan of the tire.
42 inches from the top of the rail for openings / barricades and 36 inches to the top from the top of a stair tread on stairs.
