I work with steel staircases, normally we use 200 x 10mm flat bar for the stringers. It would be handy to have an app for the iPad to quickly design stairs and railings. The mobeasoft staircase app on android has various templates for different types of stairs. The app could conceivably calculate the cut lengths and angles, total weight, estimated labour costs, even providing a quote for the customer.
the free version is next to useless because there are no dimensions given... it just ends up being frustrating and confusing and even to build a simple straight stair you'll need to calculate everything again to be sure you don't make a mistake... way too expensive for private or occasional users.
Hi John, thanks for your feedback! As a suggestion, if you want an inexpensive software solution, plus access to expert advice, you could use our StairFile service: wooddesigner.org/stairfile-service/
