By drawing a line representing the full height of the stair and dividing it into the number of treads, you can find the typical step rise. You can then extrude each tread to this height and move the steps into position.
- Our next project is to model this stair over here.…And we have an incomplete representation here, in the model,…so let's take a look at the second floor…and you see that we have complete depiction…of that particular stair there.…Let's look in the top view…and zoom in closely on the second floor plan,…and examine what we're going be building.…So we have this stair that the…treads are narrower here…and they get progressively wider as it goes up.…
So this is quite an unusual custom stair…that we need to make.…And I notice over here that we have kind of a drafting issue…and that is that the stair is separated…somewhat from the wall that it's meeting up with.…So I'm going to fix that by erasing this line…and then I'm going to extend, type e, x, enter…and extend to meet this boundary edge,…click on it and press enter,…and then press f for fence…and draw a fence across all these treads here…to extend them to meet up with that boundary edge,…then press enter.…
So now I think I've corrected that issue…and now I'd like to turn off the door layer…
