How to calculate stair treads (rise and run) stringer layout
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 сен 2024
- This is how to calculate stair treads and layout the rise and run of each stair stringer. How many steps should you add? How wide should each step be on your staircase? We go into the workshop and determine the height of the stairs needed and use the framing square to mark out each stringer.
The video might have got messed up but just having a old man explain what he knows is the best part of the video. Makes me miss having a grandfather. Thank you for this video
Some people will not get this message brother.
Love the video been in the business for 25 years wish I could’ve saw this back then great job
Wouldn’t it be 10 and three-quarter It would not be nine and three-quarter
Yep
Yes
I was thinking the same thing.
WHERE did the 3/4" come from???
If u subtract 1.5" Overhang from 11.5" Board Width= 10" Run"??
@Chris lnFlorida you wouldn't have 1 1/2" over hang on your tread. that's too much. he said leave a 3/4" overhang. 11 1/2-3/4 = 10 3/4 cut on your tread.
I wasn't sure where the 3/4" came from to subtract from the 11 1/2, but.....i was able to figure out what i needed by using the example and my own numbers. I was building a cat staircase, but didn't know how to get the proper angles at all. There was enough in this video to make it happen! :) I always appreciate hearing something from someone who has the skills...i bet this guy can whip out a staircase like nobody's business if he wasn't being filmed. Thanks!
I'm with you, WHERE did the 3/4" come from???
The thickness of the “kick board”
It’s going to sit on top of the 11 1/2 . The kick boards are usually 3/4 thick.
It's the overhang of the stair tread, assuming you don't have facia on the riser. The "plank" he points to is the width of the tread for the step. There needs to be about 3/4" that this board overhangs the edge. If you put facia on the front of the riser, that thickness will need to factored in as well because it adds to the total length needed for the tread board. Otherwise, the face of the facia will come to the front face of the tread board, and there won't be any front overhang lip on the step.
Clear as mud
ya im more lost than when I started. At least he knows what he is doing cause he doesnt know how to explain it thats for sure.
thank you so much for the help!! i really appreciate it!!
I have a deck only 18 inches up from ground how many steps can someone tell me ?
I went to school for carpentry and they explained how to cut stair stringers and I never understood it until I watched this video.
Thanks for rhe tips.
BEAUTIFUL !!!!!!!
sir with all du respect. you should have made this video step by step...how to calculate the staris. where does the 7 come from. etc etc
He literally told you. The 7 comes from code. A stair riser can be 5.5-7.5 inches high
7 1/4" for concrete steps
The Rise is easy, he mentioned your Risers height need to be somewhere between 5"-7.5".
The Height of the deck from ground up is 28".
Divide some # between 5"-7.5" to give u an even Rise Height up which 28"÷7"=4 Risers.
What I don't know is, WHERE did the 3/4" come from to figure The Run??
You rise (how far you step up) and your tread (think of this as a shoe size sort of). You don’t want your rise up with each step to be to tall or too shallow or your gait isn’t smooth as you use the stairs. You don’t the treads (area you out your feet on) to be too large (deep) or shallow for your foot either. Hope this helps.
He’s also giving an example of the average starting minimum it should be for comfort & safety (7”). I prefer the range of 7-8” minimum for both ride and treads.
7 is a bad number, because he didn't account for the thickness of the tread. That needs to be subtracted, and that's the size of your stringer rise. Then when you add the stair tread, it becomes 7.
Bruh your 4th “stair” is the deck itself
Good stuff
Now I understand how my son feels when I try to explain sh*+ to him!!! Poor kid I'm going to apologize to him now!
OMG! EVERYTIME I WATCH THIS IM THINKING.......HUH????🙄🤔🤐🤪🤨😴🥴😵🤯😭😱☠ WTF just happened? Stop , stop, STOP ....BACKUP REWIND .....NOPE O STILL DONT HAVE A FN CLUE WHAT THEY ARE TEACHING SHOWING EXPLAINING OR WHATEVER THEY ARE DOING, AINT DOING SH*T BUT CONFUSING THE F out of me and my soul!
And the CAMERA GUY ....LIKE DUDE WE ALL KNOW THE ONLY THING YOU ARE FOLLOWING IS HIM WITH A CAMERA ! WE KNOW YOU DIDN'T UNDERSTAND A fn thing he's said or talked about except 7 inches and to to bottom! Gtfoh you ain't fooling NOONE Son!
Again THANK YOU FOR THIS EDUCATIONAL TUTORIAL ON HOW TO CONFUSE TF OUT OF EVERYONE INCLUDING YOURSELF VIDEO
@@mcbrnd an àAàaa
11.5 - .75 = 10.75...
I literally stopped watching at this point and headed to the comment section before checking out the next video in the results.
Good video thank you 🙏
How do u work out the run again?
I will be building steps tomorrow based on this I'll show you how they come out.
Im curious how did they turn out the following day ? ....🙄
O I get it now haha
@@mcbrnd hey thanks for the question! They came out great ! Thank you!
@@rhoommtat2 stop lying
"Lets pretend" LOL
11 1/2 - 3/4 is 10 3/4 . Am i missing something ? Needing solid information . Not more cornfusion
Nice old man, reminds me of my dad…..definitely not a carpenter…lol
Gracias Mr Gringo. It fits!
I like it .
Unfortunately, you did not show actual cutting of the treads after actually measuring the stairs
Thanks!
A 2x12 is 1-1/2" x 11-1/4" not 11-1/2" but your theory is correct.
Where the heck do you get 3/4" i dont get it i understand where you get 11 1/2" but where do you get the 3/4". And for the people saying this is a useless video it's not. He may have messed up on the math but if you realize this is just an example.
It's the overhang lip. The stair tread will overhang by 3/4" so the cut should not include the whole width of the tread.
Left me more confused with the "let's pretend"
11 1/2 mines 3/4 is 10 3/4 try that,
01:40 um ahhh yeah how many licks to get to the center of a Charms pop...great video but perhaps proof your work before distributing it....
Hahah ...
“But Let’s just pretend it’s there” 🙄
Great video guys 👍🏼 😂.
What a waste of everyone’s time. Including your own
Wtf?
Do not use this gentleman's math.
I heard very good opinions about the Woodglut plans.
I'm sure you will find good solutions for all your ideas on the Stodoys website.
If you're going to show something show it right you both were losing yourselves very poor
Not a good job on explaining things
He might know how to do it but, he doesn't know how to explain it so you can understand it. :(
Shit
Sir, a teacher, you're not.
Too confusing for me. Not as smart as you
Terrible explanation
No disrespect to you and your skills sir, but STICK WITH YOUR CRAFTS AND STAY AWAY FROM CONSTRUCTION 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
