I have been tasked with he job of converting my companies Autocad DWG into chief Every house bar this one have been easy because there is nothing simple about these stairs. can anyone help me with a simple/easy way to do this staircase?

glennw Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Kelly, Have a look at this. I was able to get the stairs done with Chiefs stair tool. The rails and walls now need cleaning up - I don't know what your requirements are. Catalina stairs amended by Glenn.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark3D Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 This my go at it https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29819538/CatalinaMark%20try.plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Mark, I was working under the restraint that all the risers are on radii from a common point (which I marked on my plan). If you make your stair fill transparent, you can see the difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark3D Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 I was just giving it a go I am no expert with stairs but I did try to open your file to see what you came up with but you must not have closed chief when you zip as no data error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Ah, thanks Mark. I went back and changed the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellytengdahl Posted October 20, 2015 Author Share Posted October 20, 2015 YES THIS IS RIGHT BUT HOW DO YOU GET THE TREAD TO CHANGE SHAPE LIKE THAT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glennw Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Have a good look at the plan and stair settings. It is a curved stair centred with Winders checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
