CATALOG NAME: Stair Layout; Stair Layout w Landing
TYPE: PARTS
These two custom components are useful when creating stairs with components S71 and S74.
Currently, these stair components have controls for maximum riser height, but no control for the width of a tread - so one must first determine how many treads are being created in the overall height and then multiply that number by their desired width. This distance is where one picks the stair's insertion point.
These custom components do the math for you. You simply enter the desired values in the dialog box, and then pick two points to indicate the direction of the stair. The components create construction lines that locate the insertion points necessary to get the proper dimensions for their stairs.
Stair Layout
This component is for single run stairs.
Picking order;
1. Pick the (yellow) point
2. Pick the (magenta) point which can be any distance from the first point but the direction is important
Stair Layout w Landing
This component will find a desired landing height when a switchback stair is needed.
Picking order;
1. Pick the (yellow) point
2. Pick the (magenta) point which can be any distance from the first point but the direction is important
Starting in v2017i, the above Custom Components are available in all US Environment Model Templates
