timmy123 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Hi all, 1) I want the two stairs to intersect at 45 degrees. 2) Also the door in the plan view is behind the stairs. Please see images and let me know how to do both. Thx. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dshall Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Post the plan and somebody will help. Or don't post the plan and take your chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I don't think that's legal around here. A 3'landing then the steps would save someone a lawsuit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javachip24k Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I don't know who you making this drawing for... That door should be an in-swing door per building code... or someone will break theirs neck. If you make a 3' landing there, then it can be out-swing if it has to be out-swing.

Kbird1 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 is he asking for a 45° landing in the corner or just to join the treads at 45° ie miter them? I agree about the door opening onto a staircase BTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I agree with the safety issues, but here you are anyway. The stairs have to be identical in every way, so better to draw one and then copy. Use the Wrap option in the stairs dbx - Style panel. Change the stair's fill style to transparent to see the door swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NRST8TRKR Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Why do you need the stairs to the right anyway? Seems like the bridge to nowhere. Have a great week, Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Good evening, I have a similar stair scenario for a set of as-built drawings. I am attempting to miter the stairs, and have the "Allow Wrap" box checked. However, the stairs do not miter, as I am hoping they would. Has anyone had issues similar to this that you have overcome? I realize that I can create landing or polyline solids to create the look, but I was hoping to use the built in stair tools. Attached is the plan file. The stairs are on the second level. Thank you, Stephen 2017-002_E17-0082-9875 W Morrison Rd_AS-Built.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here too, If the door swings out over the stair a landing is required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 If the door swings over the stairs--landing needed, if the door swings to the inside, then legal, just to have a typical riser up against the door. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Thank you for the replies. I agree with the code issues. However, I am creating a set of As-Built plans and wish to portray the building accurately. The trouble that I am having is using the stair mitering tool. Do you happen to know what the secret to mitering identical stairs similarly to the plan that I posted above? Thank you so much for your continued posts. I enjoy reading them. Take care, Stephen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Stephen, There is another way to do this if the Allow Wrap setting is not working. I haven't had much success with internal corners with that tool. I will do a video using your plan when I get time - easier to do a video than try and describe it. This is done with stairs.

rlackore Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 You can do this with winders and an invisible wall. Pull both stairs back, insert a 45-degree invisible wall defined with a single very thin main layer (must be room def), define both stair sections as winders, then drag them back toward the wall and mess with the Tread Contraction value until they "join". 2017-002_E17-0082-9875 W Morrison Rd_AS-Built with mitered stair.plan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
