Do stair landings count as stairs?
Hello,
I'm currently measuring a building for the first time, and my professor has left me completely in the lurch. Here's my situation: I have a staircase with x steps, with a landing at the top and bottom, which is the final step, so to speak.
Intuitively, I would say that the podium counts as a step.
But as for the notation, I'm writing down three numbers (x/y/z). The number of steps, the rise of the step, and finally, the tread area. I now have the steps between the landing, with a rise of 18, and the tread area of 27.
But then there are the platforms with the same gradient but a much larger tread area.
How do I represent this in the three numbers? Or do I say that the landings in the stairs are not taken into account, which actually results in almost 36 cm being missing.
I hope I have expressed myself clearly enough and look forward to your reply.
13pcs. 18/27 = projectile height – the last step goes over or is placed into the upper podium.
Well, the professors… full of theory, blank with practice…
I plan a pedestal if it is desired 1. or 2. is necessary structurally after a certain number of slopes or if a door is in there.
I wouldn't call it a podium. Only one of the "special planning" has left too much stairway, so that the stair builder has no more left than to make an extended upper stage.
Fair exactly on how you described well:
"But then the pods come with the same slope but a much larger appearance area ."
