Hi Stu,
Here are 2 versions of the office stair.
v2 it was tricky to get the step straight as it is nearly at the end of the stringboard. Steps changed into floating steps gives you more room to work.
V3 is with a landing step as I saw you overshoot the nose of the last step by 100mm. I added a landing step of 70 mm which gave the possibility to extend the second flight by 30mm ( total 2390 mm ). This is retracting step 14 to a better position.

Hi Michel,
Thanks for the feedback, we are using 30mm MDF for the Treads and 18mm, we have gone for 32mm stringers as this is stock stringer material in NZ and the stairs are all between walls so will be fixed to the framing.
I see what you have done with the stringer on the entry stair, I couldn’t work out how this was done, I wasn’t overly fussed presently as we are going to cut these on our cnc and I was intending to make this change when tool pathing.
I have noticed that tread 14 on the office stairs isn’t square and I have tried to change this but it looks like it is at 0 degrees but when you look at the plan view it looks like it is still winding.

Hi Stu,
Both stairs look ok. I only want to add some points
1) your stairs are not containing a landing step which I would recommend on all stairs.
2) thickness of the step compared to the width. I would recommend at least 35mm as also for the stringers. As you are using riser it is ok to use 30mm but I only suggest that 35 would be a better option.
3) On the office stair, I would rework the left stringers as they have a shape issue at the connection points. You can use the stringboard editing mode to do so.
4 ) I see that you activated the step and riser wedging. You can control the angel per step as you might need another angle for wider steps.
I also corrected as an example the stringboards on the attached entry stair by splitting them on landing level. This is better for the build and also for the wedging control.
regards
Michel
