In Stair Hell....

[rrothwel]

I have a designer asking for a curved stair from level 1 to level 2 with a landing matching the curve (radius). Is this just going to be a custom mass or does anyone have an idea how to use the stair command and create this curve with a curved landing mid way up... They are wanting 12 risers before the landing and 12 after. I can do this every other way but not CURVED..... Any one can point me or just tell me the truth, I am wasting my time and need to do this in Autocad???

Is this what you need?... Or did I misunderstand?

Your center run sketch arc should have 3 segments. Start a stair by run. Chose arc for sketch. Pick center point, starting tread location then drag your arc until you see how many risers you want prior to landing. DO NOT finish the stair yet. Your next arc is your risers after your landing. Make sure you're still sketching in arc mode. Snap Center to get the same radius as your first run, pick the start point for your next set of risers and drag your arc. I'm having a hard time describing the process but trust me, it works.
