Building Stairs FROM THE PUBLISHER
Stairway design and construction is considered a cornerstone of homebuilding. To address this important topic, Building Stairs contains design, fabrication, and installation information for a wide variety of options, from simple, site-built utility staircases to elaborate spirals.
SYNOPSIS
Reprints 21 articles and accompanying color photographs published in Fine homebuilding magazine that illustrate how to measure, cut, and assemble straight, L-shaped, spiral, and curved stairways, whether inside or outside, and install railings, newel posts, skirtboards, and other trim. The final four articles address the special challenges presented by stringerless stairs and a folding attic stairway. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
