Stair Landing
The stair landing in this picture is built out 2 x 6 and 4 x 8
structural supports. This is a common
stair landing which sits on top of
one wall and is fastened to two other walls creating a landing
diaphragm. The small arrow on the left point to the upper landing due to
the number of steps required in the amount of limited space the
architect chose to put a step in the landing. If he would not have put a
step in the landing he would have had to add an additional step at the
top or the bottom of the stairway.
Tip there are many designs and shapes for your
stair landing, if you have limited space in your home design you do have
other options and methods available to you.
