    Carl’s first day on the job, he had one thing to do.... level the concrete forms.

    I really appreciate the way you drew out your plans and explained the calculations. I struggle with that part, but I’m going to try to build some new steps over top of concrete steps for my mom, with a very small budget. Thank you!

    Dude!! I just LOVE your video! Simple, and to quickly to the point. I was searching for some ideas for a very similar project, and your video ia simply light years ahead of everyone else on RUclips. The "Inspection Team" at the end was the icing on the cake! So I only have one suggestion for future videos....before you turn those pages (of your calculation drawings) giveit just a few seconds (2-3max) so that people like me can take a screenshot of what you just showed us, because it is the most informative thing EVER and almost nobody does it on here! Great work man, definitely subscribing right now. Peace

    Spencer, what carries the weight in the center of the landing? Won't those bow down in sun? Nice vid!

    • @metaspencer
      @metaspencer  5 лет назад +1

      You've found the achilles heel of the stairs! They are a bit spongy on that landing so I'm thinking a lateral piece of 2x6 will have to be added. Good catch!

  • @nathanbrowning4936
    @nathanbrowning4936 2 года назад

    I love the style and pace of this video. We're using it to build some stairs to our newly installed slider door to the backyard, and I'm wondering why you say these are temporary stairs? What would you do to make these a more "permanent" solution?

    • @metaspencer
      @metaspencer  2 года назад

      They were temporary for the homeowner as they were planning to build a deck back there ... If I were to make them permanent I'd likely bolt a ledger to the house, sink posts for railings, and likely pour a pad/landing past the final stair. I have a few builds like that on my channel you can find by searching around ... good luck with the project!

    Great video but I can't grasp the measurements (my deficit). I need 2 box steps from side garage door. Unfortunately it's concrete under the door, and uneven ground for the stairs to land. 😐

    • @metaspencer
      @metaspencer  Год назад +1

      the trick is to get a level and sound first layer ... lay things out, draw those level lines, and you'll have a good baseline to work with

  • @edg5218
    @edg5218 3 года назад +1

      As long as it doesn't become top heavy and unbraced. I built a full boxed staircase in this video: ruclips.net/video/DkFczRW5uvM/видео.html

  • @williamkeehn3637
    @williamkeehn3637 5 лет назад

    I seen stairs built code but that very last one at ground level was only 2-3 tall and a pain
    You could have been at code and still made a landing.

    • @metaspencer
      @metaspencer  5 лет назад +1

      Yeah, you're probably right ... but this was the way they wanted them and they worked out okay. Ya know, temporary stuff :)

    perhaps the concrete slab was done by a contractor that thought spirit level means how high you pour the whiskey before you drop in some ice...
