Hi Chris,
You have set your handrail to 950mm above nosings.
Do Australian regs specify they have to be exactly 865mm or a minimum of 865?

Hi Chris, just to let you know Ness is doing on site training all day today, so he may be slightly delayed coming back to you. Thanks
Hi Ness,
Thanks for the files.
One thing I need to check. The Australian regulations require that the vertical height from the tread nosing to the top of the hand rail must be 865mm. From my calculations the setout for the banister does meet this requirement. Am I correct?
Regards
Chris

Hi Chris,
Just to make sure before I process your stair:
is this the correct stair?
All the best,

Hi Chris,
To use the costing functions you have to go to Parameters>Materials and add a cost to each type of part.
The cost should be your estimated price per unit volume of the material used.
StairDesigner will calculate the total cost of each type of part and of the project.
The costs will be in the workshop document of the stair.
Parts can also be given a Weight parameter which is of little real use, however this can be used to add additional information per unit volume like machine time, varnish or what ever you want.
I see that you are a free member, for me to send you the working documents can you sign up for full membership?
All the best,
Ness
Hi Ness,
The model you sent me works perfectly. I have the clients approval of the design and would like to put together a costing.
I am keen to use the costing capabilities in the stair building software. Being the first set of stairs and with the intention to use stairdesigner for future projects it makes sense to get started on the right track from the begining. How do I go about this please.
I will also want to get the machine code to machine components on a Biesse Rover37.
Thanks for your help

Hi Chris,
Your stair has lots of room to play with the step widths.
However, the shape of the stair well you sent is not the same as the StairDesigner model you sent .
I attach a StairDesigner model that you can play with.
As your tread line is long enough I’ve added landings. You can adjust the landing positions as you want.
It’s always better to have a landing rather than winders if possible.
all the best,
Ness
