A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This chapter addresses the makings of a staircase—from commercial stairs to those with a more residential feel, with wood members, balusters, and spindles. During this procedure, architects see how the Autodesk® Revit® software brings stairs together. After architects create a common staircase, they will move on to winding stairs, custom railings, and, of course, ramps. Similar to the model as a whole, stairs and railings comprise separate families that come together to form the overall unit. Although stairs and railings are considered a system family (a family that resides only in the model), they still rely heavily on hosted families to create the entire element. As far as Revit procedures go, ramps are the kid sister to stairs. A ramp is placed in the model exactly the same way as a set of stairs.
