STAIR FRAMING, DECKING & FLOORING CARPENTRY CALCULATOR.

Metric or US/Imperial it is used by carpenters around the world.

STAIR FRAMING (currently for single stair runs):- 

Set upper and lower limits for step rise, treads, incline values and the slope formula 2R+G (2R+TD in some areas) where required by codes - all or only some applied at the same time.

In addition to handling multiple restrictions simultaneously Staircalc also allows for situations where the overall stair rise is fixed or the stair run is fixed or both rise and run are fixed allowing maximum flexibility.
