Architectural - Dynamic Stairs

[Chris.N]

Hello again,
Per Mark's great idea of grouping blocks into a file, I want to share 3 stair blocks I have created.

All handrails are included and extend per ADA standards.

• straight run
• 90 degree turn
• metal pan winders (for stair tower)

I hope whoever downloads these can find good use for them.... and any feedback would be GREAT!

Thanks!
Chris

Sweet. So SO sweet.

I'll be using these for sure ASAP.


Nice job. I'll provide more feedback once I get a chance to sit down with them and work some things out.

Great Idea BTW.

do you have a dynamic block that also creates a section of the stairs as well as the plan of it? Or is that running into LISP routines as well?

Thank you. As for the sections, I haven't figured those out yet... don't know if I can (figure out how to) combine a polar array with a variable stretch (tread ht)., and still have something left over for the handrail.

only thing I can think of is doing a single step, array, and have the riser be stretchy... now that I think of it, it's probably a good start right there!

yeah, it IS a good idea. I've tried playing with that idea for the last couple of days, but the sheer mechanics of making it work was making my ears bleed. so I figured I'd get some other smart, like-minded people to pound out some thoughts. I'll try it your way, and maybe you can let me know when you come up with something.

Hey max, how's the stair tread idea working?

Hey max, how's the stair tread idea working?

It's not really.

I tried to do it with DB's and was unable to reproduce a customizable stair DB.

I asked around the forums here for some tips and was told that to do that I'd require a LISP routine. It's because of the variation in riser heights. I imagine it might be possible through a DB ..... but I think it'd be incredibly difficult to do. You wanna take a crack at it and see if you can do it?

Hi. I just downloaded your block. It is very helpful. I was looking for something like this. It would be really cool to have this with a break line. Perhaps I can use the block & do a wipeout or something. Also would be cool to have a visibility sate where you would have no handrails or one hand rail on left or right side
