Rosaire,

 

Absolute angle refers to the position of the stair to the stringer. If your absolute angle is 90 degrees, then you have a straight step.

Angle refers to how far from the absolute angle position is the step. Therefore, a angle of 0 degrees is seen when the absolute angle is 90 degrees. This means that a movement from a straight step of -5 degrees sees an absolute angle of 85 degrees.

The Left and Right angle is usually seen on circular flight stairs. This refers to how many degrees of a circle you need to cut the stair on each side.

Let me know if you need further explanation.

Could someone clarify the difference between “angle” and “absolute angle”?

Also on the cutting list for steps, the terms used are “right angle” and Left angle”?

 

thanks for your help
