Hi Andy 

it is 2269mm . What you see is the flight 2239 but you have to add the 30 mm nosing from the landing . So now the total length as it is drawn is 2269mm. Stairdesigner is taking measure to the start of the landing.

Look again I told you that i add the landing in the stairwell with 30mm nosing. When you click on the flight you read 2239 mm but there is still a 30 mm nosing to be added and that you can see on the drawing. This is correct to me.

Hi Michel

Sorry but it is not good. What you have done is shorten flight #2 from 2269mm to 2239mm. I want it at 2269mm so that when I bolt on the 30mm plate it will then be the original length of 2299mm which is the available space.

But, of course, all non-kite steps, including step 15 should have the same width.

I really do think that removing the landing step would simplify things and prevent the software from making decisions that alter the design in ways that are not helpful.

When i added the 5mm upper and lower recess on step 15 link to newel post 5, it looks correct, assuming that the tread width is good.

Cheers

Hi Andy 

this one should be the good one. I put the landing inside the stairwel on 30mm nosing. All steps are now the same . The 30 mm shortening is divided between all steps.

Hi Michel

When I open your file Staircase-La-Brizaude-21.03.2017-1.stair. I DO NOT see the step, stringers and newel aligned at the rear. There is a 30mm length beyond the last step on both stringers and then newel post sticks out, also probably by 30m, but I have no way of knowing for sure.

I am sending you a version where I changed the length beyond last step to 0mm and where I have set the longtitudinal offset for newel #5 to -45m in an attempt to bring it in line.

For step 15 I changed the upper and lower recess in the link with the newel post  to 5mm then it looks OK. Like I had it before.

But there is what looks like a 30mm part of the tread which does not engage with the newel in the way I think it does on the plan

I still cannot be sure that width of step 15 is the same as all the other non-kite steps.

Please have a look.

Cheers

Andy

Hi Andy 

there you see that I aligned the stringers and newel and that step 15 is ok 

Is this how you need it ?
