How to create a combination staircase in RevitDuring the modeling process, sometimes we need to build some special stairs, as shown in the figure, which are in the shape of general steel stairs. However, Revit does not have this type of staircase, and this effect can be achieved by setting the parameters of the combination staircase.
1. First, create a metric profile family, draw the required pedal profile as shown in the figure, and save it with a suitable name.
2. Then create a new contour family and draw the contour of the ladder edge beam as shown in the figure, and save it with a suitable name.
3. In the project file where stairs need to be created, load the contour family that was just drawn, create a new composite staircase, open the edit type, copy a new type and rename it, and then open the stair run type properties dialog box, as shown in the figure.
4. Next, edit the properties of the stair run type and set corresponding values for the pedal material, thickness, etc. Select the contour family that was just drawn and loaded for the pedal contour, as shown in the figure. Uncheck the ladder surface, keep the pedal checked, and then click OK.
5. Click on the support position (left, right), select the ladder edge beam, and then choose the support type, as shown in the figure, to enter the ladder edge beam type properties dialog box.
6. Add materials, select the stair edge beam profile family that was just drawn and loaded for the cross-sectional profile, and adjust the depth of the platform structure according to the actual stair position. Set the left support in the same way, click OK twice to draw the stairs.
After drawing the stairs, it may be found that the positions of the stair beams and treads are not very matched. At this time, the depth of the treads and platforms, as well as the contour position of the contour family, can be adjusted to better match the stair beams and treads.
