Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 10 Stair Framing Informational Outline
1) Stairs a) Stairway Design
i) General
(1) The stairwell is the opening in the floor through which a person must pass when climbing and descending the stairs.
(2) Stairs are further defined as finish or service stairs.
(3) Stairways in residential construction should be at least 36 inches wide.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 11
ii) Types of Stairways
(1) A straight stairway is continuous from one floor to another.
(2) Platform stairs have intermediate landings between floors.
(3) An L-type platform stairway changes direction 90 degrees.
(4) A U-type platform stairway changes direction 180 degrees.
(5) A winding staircase gradually changes direction as it ascends from one floor to another.
(a) Their use is not recommended.
(6) Stairways constructed between walls are called closed stairways.
(7) Stairways that have one or both sides open to a room are called open stairways.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 12
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 13 b) Stair Framing Terms
i) Total Rise – the vertical distance between finish floors.
ii) Total Run – the total horizontal distance that the stairway covers.
iii) Unit Rise – the vertical distance from one step to another.
iv) Riser – the finish material that covers this distance.
v) Tread – the horizontal member on which the feet are placed when climbing or descending the stairs.
vi) Unit Run – the horizontal distance between the faces of the risers along the tread.
vii) Nosing – that part of the tread that extends beyond the face of the riser.
viii) Stair Carriage – the main support under the risers and treads.
ix) Stair Stringer – serves as a finish or trim piece to the stairs that covers the carriage. It may also serve as the main support for the risers and
treads when a carriage is not used.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 14 x) Stairwell – an opening in the floor for the stairway to pass through.
xi) Headroom – the smallest vertical distance between the stairs and the upper construction over the foot of the stairs.
xii) Closed Staircase – one where the treads and risers end against a vertical surface.
xiii) Open Staircase – when the ends of the tread and risers are visible.
c) Determining the Unit Rise and Unit Run
i) Staircases must be constructed at an appropriate angle for maximum ease in climbing and for safe descent.
ii) The height of a riser shall not exceed 7 3/4 inches.
iii) The width of a tread should not be less than 10 inches.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 15 d) Determine unit rise
(1) Measure the total rise of the stairway.
(2) Find the number of risers that will fit in the opening.
ii) Dividing the total rise again by the number of rises gives the riser height.
e) Tread Run
i) The sum of one unit rise and one unit run should equal between 17 and 18.
ii) Another formula to find the unit run states that the sum of two risers and one tread shall not be less than 24 inches nor more than 25 inches.
iii) Decreasing the unit rise increases the run of the stairs.
iv) Increasing the riser height decreases the run.
v) A riser height of 7 1/2 inches and a unit run of 10 inches makes a safe, comfortable stairway.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 16 f) Determining the Size of the Stairwell
i) Stairwell Width
(1) The stairwell must be made wider than the staircase to allow for wall and stair finish.
(2) Extra width will be required for a handrail and other finish parts of an open staircase that makes a U-turn on the landing above.
ii) Length at the Stairwell
(1) The length of the stairwell depends on the slope of the stairway.
(2) Most building codes require a minimum of 6’ 8” for headroom.
iii) To find the minimum length of the stairwell
(1) Add the thickness of the floor assembly above (sum of sub-floor, floor joists, and ceiling finish) to the desired headroom.
(2) Divide this number by the unit rise and round up to the next largest whole number.
(3) Then multiply this number by the unit run to find the minimum length of the stairwell.
(4) Additional headroom can be obtained by framing the header above the low end of the staircase at the same angle as the stairs.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 17
g) Methods of Stair Construction

(1) Dadoes are routed into the sides of the finish stringer.
(2) A router and stair jig are used to dado the stringers.
(3) Stair carriages are not required when the housed finish stringer method of construction is used.
iii) Determining the Rough Length of a Staircase
(1) May be determined by using the Pythagorean Theorem.
(2) Can also be found by scaling across a framing square.
(a) Use the edge of the square that is graduated in 12ths of an inch.
(b) Mark the total rise on the tongue.
(c) Then mark the total run on the blade.
(d) Scale off in between the marks.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 19 iv) Laying Out and Framing a Stairway with a Landing
(1) A landing is designed for changing the direction of the stairs and as a resting place for long stair runs.
(2) Many codes state that no flight of stairs shall have a vertical rise of more than 12 feet.
(3) Codes require the minimum dimension to be the width of the stairway. U-type stairs usually have the landing about the midway
on the flight.
(4) Platform stairs are built by first erecting the platform.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 20 2) Stair Carriage a) General
i) When laying out stair carriages, make sure that every riser height will be the same.

ii) Sight the stock for a crowned edge.
iii) Set stair gauges on the framing square with the unit rise on the tongue and the unit run on the blade.
iv) Lines marked out along the tongue will be plumb lines and those along the blade will be level lines.
v) Step-off the necessary number of times, marking along the outside of the tongue and blade.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 21 vi) Lay out a level line at the top of the carriage for the tread.
vii) Lay out a level line on bottom where the carriage sits on the floor.
viii) A certain amount may have to be cut off the bottom end of the stair carriage.
(1) If the carriage rests on the finish floor, the first riser is reduced by the thickness of the tread stock.
(2) If the bottom of the carriage rests on the sub-floor, and the finish floor and tread stock are the same thickness, the height of the first
riser is the same as all the rest.
(3) If the bottom of the carriage rests on the subfloor and the tread stock is thicker than the finish floor, then the first riser is reduced
by the difference of tread and finished floor thicknesses.
(a) No amount is cut from the level line at the top of the carriage.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 22
(4) Allowances must be made so that the top finished tread width will be the same as all others in the staircase.
c) Cutting the Stair Carriages
i) Follow the layout lines carefully.
ii) Using the first carriage as a pattern, lay out and cut as many other carriages as needed.
d) Installing the Stair Carriage
i) Fasten the first carriage in position on one side of the stairway.
ii) Place nails near the bottom edge of the carriage to prevent splitting the triangular sections.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 23
iii) Fasten a second carriage on the other wall in the same manner as the first.
iv) If the stairway is to be open on one side, position the stair carriage on the open side of staircase, making sure its outside face will be plumb
with the centerline of the handrail when it is installed.
v) Fasten intermediate carriages.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 24
e) Finishing a Closed Stair Carriage

Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 27 (5) If it is not possible to work from the underside, the treads must be face nailed.
(6) At the top of the stairs, install a landing tread.
iv) Tread Molding
(1) The tread molding is installed under the overhang of the tread and against the riser.
(2) Cut the molding to the same length as the treads, using a miter box.
(3) Fasten the molding in place with 4d finish nails.
f) Finishing an Open Stair Carriage
i) Finish Stringers
(1) The open finish stringer must be installed before the risers and the closed finish stringer.
(2) Cut a length of finish stringer stock.
(3) Fit it to the floor and against the landing.
(4) Its top edge should be flush with the top edge of the stair carriage.
(5) Lay out level lines on the face of the stringer in line with the tread cut on the stair carriage.

Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 37 D. Balustrade
1. Balustrade Members
a. Newel Posts
• Starting newels are used at the bottom of a staircase.
• Intermediate landing newels.
b. Handrails
• Handrail heights are typically 30 to 38 inches vertically
above the nosing edge of the tread.
• There should be continuous 1-1/2 inch finger clearance
between the rail and the wall.
• Some handrails are plowed with a wide groove on the
bottom side to hold square-top balusters in place.
• On closed staircases, a balustrade may be installed on top
of a knee-wall or buttress.
c. Balusters
• They are spaced close together and support the handrail.
• On a knee-wall, they run from the handrail to the shoe rail.
• On an open staircase, they run from the handrail to the
treads.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 38 2. Laying Out Balustrade
a. Its centerline is first laid out.
b. Lay Out Baluster Centers
• Most codes require that balusters be spaced so that no
object 4 inches in diameter or greater can pass through.
• If two balusters are used on each tread, the spacing is half
the run.
• If codes require three balusters per tread, the spacing is
one-third the run.
3. Installing a Balustrade
a. Laying Out the Handrail
• Clamp the handrail to the tread nosing.
• Clamp at the tread nosing to avoid bowing the handrail.
• Use a framing square to mark the handrail where it will fit
between starting and the balcony or upper newel post.
• Use a framing square at the landing nosing to measure the
vertical thickness of the rake handrail.
• At the bottom, measure the height from the first tread to
the top of the handrail where it butts the newel post.
• Record and save the measurements for later use.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 39 b. Determining the Height of the Starting Newel
• The height of the stair handrail is taken from the top of the
tread along a plumb line flush with the face of the riser.
• Stairways wider than 44 inches require a handrail on both
sides.
• Handrail heights are typically 30 to 38 inches vertically
above the nosing edge of the tread.
• If a turned starting newel post is used, add the difference
between the two previously recorded measurements above to the
required rake handrail height.
• Then add 1 inch for a block reveal.
c. Installing the Starting Newel
• Trim the starting newel to the desired length.
• The starting newel is notched over the outside corner of
the first step.
1) One-half of its bottom thickness is left on from the
front face of the post to the face of the riser.
2) In the other direction, it is notched so its centerline
will be aligned with the handrail centerline.
• Plumb it in both directions.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 40 • Secure in place with counter-bored lag screws.
d. Installing the Balcony Newel
• Codes require that balcony rails for homes be no less than
36 inches.
• Trim the balcony newel to the calculated height.
• Plumb it in both directions.
• Fasten it in place with counter-bored lag bolts.
e. Boring Holes for Balusters
• Bore holes in the treads at the center of each baluster.
• Cut the handrail to fit.
• Place the handrail on the tread nosing between posts.
• Transfer the baluster centerlines from the treads to the
handrail.
f. Installing Handrail and Balusters
• Prepare the posts for fastening the handrail by counter-
boring and drilling shank holes for lag bolts through the posts.
• Temporarily fasten the handrail to the posts.
• Cut the balusters to length.
• If square-top balusters are used, they are trimmed to
length at the handrail angle and inserted into a plowed handrail.
Mr. Kintzel – Carpentry Instructor STC South Campus 41 • Fillets are installed in the plow of the handrail, between
the balusters.
4. Installing the Balcony Balustrade
a. Handrail
• Cut a half newel to the same height as the balcony newel.
• Cut the handrail to length.
• Fasten the half newel to one end of it.
• Replace the half newel to the wall and temporarily fasten
the other end of the handrail to the landing newel.
• A rosette may be used to end the handrail against a wall.
b. Balcony Balusters
• The balcony balusters are spaced by adding the thickness
of one baluster to the distance between the balcony newel and the
half newel or wall.
• The overall distance is then divided into spaces that equal,
as close as possible, the spacing of the rake balusters.
• The balcony balusters are then installed in a manner
similar to the rake balusters.
