Stair Layout
Complete Guide to Stair Building and Stair Layout

By Stanley Badzinski Jr.

Stair Layout takes all factors of stair building into account, ranging from layout and design to building tips. Stair building is presented with methods for laying out, cutting, and installing stair carriages, cleated stringers, dadoed stringers, housed stringers, and mitered stringers.

Simplified stair layout techniques show and explain the complex steps required to lay out and build stairs. By applying the rules outlined in Stair Layout, it is possible to design and build straight stairs, stairs with landings, and winding stairs all with proper headroom and unit rise to unit run ratio.
