    Default End monolithic stair with riser??

    Is this impossible? I keep getting "Can't end Stairs with Riser because Riser Thickness is too small."

    Ignore the error, your stair is fine. The stair tool is a little crazy

    Monolithic stairs must end with a tread, because the treads and risers are both part of the same monolithic element. which means there is no actual tread or riser thickness. If you end with a riser at the top, the riser has to have some thickness, but that field is grayed out on monolithic stairs.

    For exterior stairs coming up to a door with a landing at the top, I just make my top tread be the whole landing. Works great and looks correct in elevations and sections.

    For interior monolithic stairs, I usually use linework to get rid of the lines around the top-most tread (which is at the floor level and indeed is part of the floor).

    Of course being able to join stairs to floors would alleviate all these issues.

    How would you go about making the top landing (which is actually the top stair tread) to be wider than the tread widths? Imagine a 4'-0" wide run terminating at a 6'-0" wide x 5'-0" deep landing. Revit keeps griping at me regarding boundary loops. I've read through the standard tutorials, but I haven't had much luck yet.

    Thanks.

    The trick to ending with a landing is that the end must be a riser not a boundary. See the attached images or watch a short video.
