Stairway design and construction is a cornerstone of homebuilding. This is where
carpenters show off their skill in combining safe, solid construction with
suitable dimensions, excellent craftsmanship, and (more often than not)
impressive measures of ingenuity.
Even in the simplest of houses, building a stairway can be a complex project.
That's why the editors of Fine Homebuilding magazine have compiled a selection of
stair-building articles that covers a broad range of details relating to design,
fabrication and installation. Its all here -- from simple, site-built utility
staircases to elaborate spirals. |

Professional Grade
Information on Building High Quality Stairs. Stair building
combines precision carpentry with tricky math, so even experienced
builders find it challenging. But as this extensively illustrated
book demonstrates, any builder who can measure the distance between
two floors can plan and build a stunning set of stairs. By clearly
laying out the geometry, planning, and construction involved, author
Andy Engel takes the reader from a simple structure built of framing
lumber to a set of stairs fit for a king. From building and
installing railings to using off-the-shelf stair parts, Building
Stairs lays out the process clearly and completely. |

If you know the floor-to-floor rise, this
handbook gives you everything else: number and dimension of
treads and risers, total run, correct well hole opening, angle
of incline, and quantity of materials and settings for your
framing square for over 3,500 code-approved rise and run
combinations – several for every 1/8-inch interval from a 3
foot to a 12 foot floor-to-floor rise. |

design to building tips. Stair building is presented with methods

stringers. |
