Winder stair rebuild options

[@timbirch4999]

I've been trying to work out the size and shape of my kite steps - I have the same problem, too narrow at the inside to pass building regulations if we replace the stairs. This is such a simple way to picture it! Thank you. :-)

Thank you so much for sharing this ! After viewing this on the grid paper it made so much more sense to me! So for my problem my stair way with winder steps is already narrow. So this means I have to increase the landing which also means I have to remove part of a non bearing wall to create enough room for the landing. I think I should be able to do it. I wish I had you with me while I am trying to improve my staircase! It's all in the math and I have always made math more difficult than it needs to be.

You are so welcome!

Wow..super..u have cleared my doubt..

[@geraldpichette202]

Doubt if it gets me every time

[@dineshkumarvasudevan2544]

Thank you very much,well explained

[@srinivasarao802]

Hello width is important not for fire reasons. It should have sufficient space for people crossing each other. But you prestn is very good and brilliant.

Great post 💪🏼👍

Good teacher

[@josepeixoto3384]

i would just make a square step (7 x7 on your 2nd drawing),and do away with all the angles; do you see any problem with that?

[@apprenticemath]

Yup. Won`t work. Specifically, there will be height lost for each step that is taken out. Will not make it to the top height without enough steps somewhere.

I asked you a question 2 days ago I can't find option now. In the comments somebody made was about the code and it was to be consistent 12 inches from the inside wall I have five steps to make the turn the sixth step is rectangle recessed into the landing and 8 going up to the first turn point so I always wondered why the inside noses of the threads don't line up there longer and shorter not in order not sure if I explaining it right I believe that's how they keep the consistency of the 12inch from the inside wall I guess the old saying more then one way to skin a cat applies i think it has the same effect as making the hallway narrower now I see they knew what they were doing I don't get the guy that says that your video is a waste of time it's all about learning and sharing knowledge thanks a lot I really appreciate it will help many keep it simple . the rocket scientist out there will tell you how every molecule in the wood going to affect the staircase

Thanks,

need help to mark out spiral staircase

[@ashwinishinde1303]

I am not understand

[@paulconnor2261]

This whole video is a complete waste of time you walk up the middle of a staircase anyway so why would you change the staircase the cost would ridiculous

[@jamesuhl3995]

Because code requires a consistent tread depth on the "walk line" and code defines the walk line as 12" from the inside arc of the stairwell.

[@geraldpichette202]

Yeah you walk up the middle most of the time when you Carrie big and heavy stuff up there I ran into times where I wish I had a little extra footing on the inside

[@geraldpichette202]

​@@jamesuhl3995good to know how to go measure minet probably didn't apply about 200 years ago

[@geraldpichette202]

​@@jamesuhl3995thanks for that information

[@geraldpichette202]

​​@@jamesuhl3995thanks for the info I just looked at mine. at about 12 in on the inside. It consistently looks to be corrected by altering the length of the threads mine has 5 threads to complete the turn and the sixth step is a rectangle and its recessed into the landing I always wondered why they vary on the inside wall I think I'll have to incorporate the last riser of the recessed rectangle thread to be part of the header im mirroring the staircase and its landing and railing on top to do an addition on that side if any one can foresee any problems that may present themselves I sure appreciate any pointers thanks everyone for the information
