U-shaped staircase calculator with landing is a handy interactive tool that will be useful for professionals and beginners who have decided to make their first stair with their own hands. The program will automatically select the optimum height and width of steps, the angle of slope, and length stringers.
How to calculate U-shaped staircase with landing turn?
A simple calculation system helps in a few minutes to get geometric measurements of the staircase and its elements without resorting to designers.
For ease of use, the interface online calculator is divided into two main sections:
- On the left, the section of the calculator is for data entry, includes standard dimensions and tips. You do not have to long to understand, just compare the numerical data, with the data on the Diagrams.
- On the right, the calculator contains detailed Diagrams made directly for your project. You can save and print them on your computer for later use in building the stairs.
To select the comfortable size of steps, their height, width and angle of slope of the stairs you should adhere to the following rules:
- The optimal slope of the march for comfortable walking is 30-40 degrees.
- The most appropriate step height is 15-20 centimeters.
- The width of the step is 27-32 centimeters. But do not forget about the size of the steps made in the factory, their standard size in most cases has a width of 30 cm. If you plan to use the factory steps in the manufacture of the stairs, this point must be taken into account.
- Also, you should pay special attention to the landing, "factory" landings have certain dimensions, which are better to clarify the manufacturer.
- The thickness of the steps, as well as the thickness of the landing is determined on the basis of the species of wood, so for example the standard thickness is 4 cm.
- The steps nosing is not recommended to use more than 5 cm for wooden construction, it is necessary when you for some reason you can not stand the optimal size of a straight step.
Using the U-shaped stair calculator with a landing is a great solution to minimize your costs in its construction.
This calculator is suitable not only for wooden staircases, but can also be used for a metal staircase, since the principle of designing both types of stairs is almost the same.
