New Stairway Design Alteration - On Site Construction Problem Solutions
How to Add a Step to Your Stairway
Greg is specifically talking about a situation where the architect or building designer made a mistake and the set of stairs needed to be modified.
The video starts by pointing out that the width of the stair tread must be the same as the other treads on the stairway. He also says that the stair riser must be the same height as the other risers. If these measurements are not the same, it could create a safety problem and a building code issue.
Then talks about the nosing of the stair tread. The nosing is the overhang of the tread at the front. He says that the nosing should be the same size as the other nosings on the stairway. If the nosing is too small, it could be difficult to walk up and down the stairs.
Greg also talks about the ramp. He says that the ramp should be long enough to make it easy to walk up and down. If the ramp is too short, it could be difficult to walk up and down.
Then concludes the video by saying that it is important to follow the building code when adding a step to a stairway. He also says that it is important to get a permit from the building department before starting work.
When adding a step to a stairway, it is important to plan the project carefully and make sure that all of the materials are in place before you start.
It is also important to follow the building code in your area.
If you are not sure how to do something, it is always best to consult with a professional.
