| Circular Stairs
Circular stairs
come in many shapes and sizes from grand staircases and the big mansions
of the old South to the modern-day track framed home where one stair man
can build two sets of staircases a day. Your basic circular set of
stairs otherwise known as curved stairs can be made quite simply with 2
x 4 framing whereas a complicated set of circular stairs which is open
underneath the staircase could require a prefabricated shop built set of
stairs. The shop built stairs will require days to build as to their
complicated laminated structure which requires the use of extensive
geometry. The geometry required to figure out the tangents involved for
the stair design and the handrail are complicated and extremely
difficult.
The simple set of circular stairs which would not be open underneath the
staircase can realistically be built by an novice carpenter with our
simple instructions in a few days. This system does not require
extremely difficult math to figure it out. But it does require basic
math skills and could seem very intimidating. This basic set of circular
stairs will require the a few simple tools along with a basic home
framing skills. |
