What does a wooden staircase consist of?
The simplest straight staircase consists of such elements:
The atyves are the sides of the stairs. Massive boards with cutting under the stairs. Tethyves are load-bearing foundations and must be strong and reliable.
An optional element is the steps. These boards close the void between the steps.
For safety, they build a railing. They help with climbing and descending and prevent falling out of the stairs.
The area between the floors is used to save space occupied by the stairs.
Construction of the stairs should be done in the following order:
- First of all, an interfloor platform should be installed. The legs are fixed to the frame with stiffening ribs. The structure is installed in its place and covered with a decking to prevent physical damage when installing other elements.
- The awnings are fastened by steps and installed between the platform at the top and bottom and fixed firmly to the wall.
- Then fasten the balusters and railing. They are ordered from masters of turning or buy ready in the shop.
