AutoCad 3D :: Winding Stair Stringer - Sweep Command Options

Dec 27, 2011

I need to SWEEP the yellow rectangle in this drawing along the magenta 3DPOLYLINE. This is a stair stringer for a winding stair I'm trying to model. The trouble is that when I SWEEP it the rectangle begins to rotate and ends up all out of whack once it gets to the top.

As I understand it, this is something that AutoCAD does not handle well and something like 3DsMax does. Problem is I don't have 3Ds Max and if I recall correctly there is a way to do this within AutoCAD. I just don't understand the SWEEP command options well enough. I've tried setting Align to No and Twist to the 270° that this thing runs, but each time I end up with the stringer rotated out of place.

Revit :: Stair Handrail Post Doesn't Connect To Stringer

Feb 4, 2014

I currently have a situation in white my stair handrail mid post wont connect to my stair stringer. I have a C10 stair stringer and am using a modified typer square handrail system I have made. I am sure there is a setting or preference I have missed that is causing this. I have attached an image for reference.
 
ALSO in the image you can see the top rail does not fully attach to the end post. It sits in the middle somehow. AND that end post sits halfway off the stringer.

AutoCad 3D :: Sweep Spiral Stair Channel Shape Along Spline?

Jul 3, 2011

I am once again trying to get the hang of drawing a 3D spiral staircase and cannot seem to figure out the SWEEP command properly. I have a channel, or a rectangular tube shape which I want to use for the stringers. If I use a round tube, like when I do the handrail, there is no trouble. But when I use a channel or rectangular tube shape the SWEEP command causes the shape to bank and I end up with an unuseable shape.

In the attached drawing (ACAD-2007 format) I have shown a SPLINE which indicates the path I want the outside stringer to follow.

AutoCad 2D :: Make Associative Path Array To Depict Stair Treads

Jul 19, 2011

I am creating a set of parametric stairs. All of my constraints are in place for my 2 main work points. I am now trying to make an associative path array to depict the stair treads. Path array works great initially, however when I change my variables for stair height, my stair treads tilt with my work line in such a way that they're no longer parallel to the floor.

The angle of the stairs must be variable as it will change from one set of stairs to another. All that said, I am wondering if there is some variable or command that will make the treads retain their ucs orientation regardless of the angle of my path line. I've tried every option while creating the array with no luck.

Revit :: Distance To Make A Stair Case

Mar 25, 2013

I have a client that needed to know the distance required to make a stair case, and when I drew it wight revit 2013, I discovered that I could manually adjust the riser height but was unable to adjust the tread length.  I was also unable to end the stairs with a tread rather than a riser, witch he wanted.

AutoCAD Architecture :: One Stair For Multiple Levels

Mar 25, 2013

I have a building with 2 levels & I have one stairwell.  My 2 levels are in a shell.dwg - (first floor level & second floor level).  I have a simple stair & landing, which is an element.  I insert that element into the first floor level.  Everything is fine there, but when I set up a view drawing with the shell (construct) & stair (element in construct) for the second level the stair is diplayed as if it is going up from the first floor level - I need it to show going down from the second floor level.  Is there way to show that with one stair?  

What we have done in the past is to not have levels, 1 construct for first floor & another for second floor - creating a stair styles for each floor.  But when you do a model you have stairs on top of each other (not really using the software like we should).  So my question is how do I have 1 stair for 2 different levels & show it correctly for each level.  When I set my cut-plane height for first floor level - looks great, but when I set it second floor level - either it remains the same obviously or when I uncheck the override display config. in other on the display tab in the style the stair disappears.  I'm trying a new way of creating models/plans & I can't think on how to create the stairs correctly.  What am I missing in order to look correctly in plan view without making 2 stairs.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Stair Landing Width And Extension

May 3, 2013

how I keep the three risers shown in the image below, but extend the landings on the first and third run to avoid creating the angled corners.  The angled corners show up when I manually edit the edges to bring the second run width down to match the first and third run width.

If I extend the landings, it tends to push one of the second run risers around the corner to the third run, and that screws up my design.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Stair Not Displaying In Sheet File

Nov 12, 2012

I have set up a view with a stair that goes from the first floor to the second floor. The stair has been asigned to the first floor level only. It appears as I want it in the view. However, when I drag the view into my sheet file, the stair disappears and only the path shows, without the individual nosings.

AutoCAD Architecture :: How To Change Number Of Treads Using Stair Command

Oct 24, 2012

It seems to be set at 17 but I can't find a way to change it.

Autocad help is not useful at all as it says change the field to a user defined one, whilst not actually telling you how to do that.

AutoCad :: Creating A Spiral Slide

Oct 19, 2011

You see, one of the slides needs to be a spiral type. It has to be 175 (units-in my case cm) tall and 60 (units) ride so the bigger kids can slide down no problem.

My problem is making the 2D (and thus 3D) image. I'm not to sure how to go about this. I've tried doing the HELIX command but it's seemingly impossible to match up the two spirals to create the constant width and even create the slide.

May 10, 2012

I m trying to draw some stairs but really struggling in even finding a place to start. Basically I have a large cylinder which an access platform, I need to put some stairs to it as per the as fitted drawing which is lacking in info to say the least. I know the diameter of the tank, and the length of the stairs as the leave the platfor to the ground. I also know the floor elevation height, just not got a clue where to start.

Forgot to mention the angine of the spiral staircase in 40degrees.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Transition (spiral) Shift Offsets

I'm looking for a way to determine (and preferably edit) the values of P1 and P2, the offsets of the initial tangents into the PC/PT of the shifted curve. It's not in the (admiteddly basic) book I have either.

[Edit: OK, after double-checking,I just found Widening offset clothoid, but I'm still none the wiser.]

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Sample Line On Alignment With Spiral

Aug 29, 2013

I draw an alignment for road. I turned off design criteria and i used data from manual for my country Slovenia. I need spiral in, curve and spiral out on alignment. Finally i got that alignment. Then i insert sample lines along the alignment. Then i saved autocad civil 3d file and shut  down the program. When i reopen file, i see that sample lines after the spiral in being erased. Sample lines stayed along first tangent, after that they were erased.
