Modify Stair Dimensions

  1. change the value for the Actual Run Width instance property. See Run Component Instance Properties.

What do you need to know about Revit stairs?

You can add an offset on these levels if required. DESIRED STAIR HEIGHT: Total distance between the base and the top of the stairs, including offsets. DESIRED NUMBER OF RISERS: Automatically calculated by Revit, dividing Stair Height by Maximum Riser Height. You can change this number, which will modify the stair slope.

How do you change railings on Revit stairs?

You can change this option by clicking on a run and checking/unchecking the parameters. While creating stairs, railings will automatically be added to your stair. The default type will be the last one selected. To change it, click the railing button and select another type, or select None for a stair without railing.

Do you have to uncheck landing on Revit stairs?

If you draw two stairs run next to each other, Revit will automatically add a landing to join the two. You can uncheck this feature when creating the stairs (see tip 2). Landings at the top or at the bottom of the stairs are never automatic, they have to be created manually.

How is the number of risers calculated in Revit?

DESIRED NUMBER OF RISERS: Automatically calculated by Revit, dividing Stair Height by Maximum Riser Height. You can change this number, which will modify the stair slope. ACTUAL NUMBER OF RISERS: The number of risers you modeled so far. MAXIMUM RISER HEIGHT: Riser height for your stair will never go above this value.
