JASInteriors Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Is it possible to use ladders to get from one floor up to the next without having to use big bulky stairs like for in a small cabin or something like that? I mean the main floor is barely 450 square feet. Would love to show an ladder from floor 1 up to floor 2 in the drawings, renderings. I am using CA X9. Thanks in advance.

Chopsaw Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Maybe something like this if you local code allows it :https://chieftalk.chiefarchitect.com/topic/15119-alternating-tread-stair/?do=findComment&comment=127828 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chief58 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Like Chopsaw said it all depends on your local codes if you have any where you are located 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NRST8TRKR Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 As said above, ck code. It is called a Captains Ladder and is the way to access a loft in a tiny house. Have a great week, Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JASInteriors Posted October 13, 2017 Author Share Posted October 13, 2017 Not looking to see if its in code or not - I mentioned that I wanted to show it in the design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopsaw Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 If your not worried about safety or fire then just draw what you need with polyline solids and apply a matching material. If you have any extra room a little slope really helps you find the next step on the way back down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
