Stair - Basis tab

Setting	Description
Lower landing length	Displays the length of the lower stair head.
Upper landing length	Displays the length of the upper stair head.
US-Definition	When checked, makes use the stair lengths definition according to American standard. The stair length and lower landing is set according to US-Styles, where the lower landing length goes to the 1st step.
Create lower landing	When checked, creates length of the lower stair head. Keeps the first insertion point as a start point of stair. When unchecked, the staircase cheeks are cut at the basic plane and the stair head is omitted.
Do not create upper landing	When checked, creates no upper platform. Meaning, no landing is created at the upper end of the staircase, and cuts the staircase shapes perpendicularly.
Stair foot length	Sets the height of the vertical foot. A zero value will make the staircase cheek to hit the basic plane.
Vertical section	Sets the vertical cut from the front edge of the staircase cheek. This field is only available if no length was specified for the staircase foot (i.e., if the staircase cheek directly hits the basic plane).
Ground distance	Sets the distance of the horizontal cut from the definition plane of the stair. Used to insert a gap between the staircase foot and the basic plane (e.g., to have enough space for a completing construction or for foundations). A positive value goes downwards. This field is only available if no length was specified for the staircase foot (i.e., if the staircase cheek directly hits the basic plane).
Web grating thickness	Sets the height of the checker plate, that defines the thickness of the attached gridiron.
Side offset	Sets the offset of the checker plates over the stringer that defines the projection of the attached gridirons beyond the outer edge of the staircase construction. A negative value decreases the dimension of gridirons.
Upper edge equal	When checked, mounts the upper edge of the inserted gridirons equal to upper edge lateral parts. Sets the platform plates equal with the upper edge of the side parts, and the side offset to zero.

Lower landing length

Displays the length of the lower stair head.

Upper landing length

Displays the length of the upper stair head.

US-Definition

When checked, makes use the stair lengths definition according to American standard. The stair length and lower landing is set according to US-Styles, where the lower landing length goes to the 1st step.

Create lower landing

When checked, creates length of the lower stair head. Keeps the first insertion point as a start point of stair. When unchecked, the staircase cheeks are cut at the basic plane and the stair head is omitted.

Do not create upper landing

When checked, creates no upper platform. Meaning, no landing is created at the upper end of the staircase, and cuts the staircase shapes perpendicularly.

Stair foot length

Sets the height of the vertical foot. A zero value will make the staircase cheek to hit the basic plane.

Vertical section

Sets the vertical cut from the front edge of the staircase cheek. This field is only available if no length was specified for the staircase foot (i.e., if the staircase cheek directly hits the basic plane).

Ground distance

Sets the distance of the horizontal cut from the definition plane of the stair. Used to insert a gap between the staircase foot and the basic plane (e.g., to have enough space for a completing construction or for foundations). A positive value goes downwards. This field is only available if no length was specified for the staircase foot (i.e., if the staircase cheek directly hits the basic plane).

Web grating thickness

Sets the height of the checker plate, that defines the thickness of the attached gridiron.

Side offset

Sets the offset of the checker plates over the stringer that defines the projection of the attached gridirons beyond the outer edge of the staircase construction. A negative value decreases the dimension of gridirons.

Upper edge equal

When checked, mounts the upper edge of the inserted gridirons equal to upper edge lateral parts. Sets the platform plates equal with the upper edge of the side parts, and the side offset to zero.
