Cantilevered Stair

Anonymous
Not applicable
Is there a way to make a cantilevered stair in archicad using stairmaker?...or another tool?... I can make them using slabs and modeling everything manually so to speak, but it looks like such a simple type of stair (shape wise) that is surprises me stairmaker doesn't have it as an option.

I'm not sure if Cantilevered is the correct name, the stair I'm refereing to is this

One solution involves creating two overlapping stairs and subtraction of another, but there may be other!!

Another option is to draw the longitudinal section of the Stair in the Profile Manager's Editor, save it as a Profile and place it. Possibly as a Beam because then you will have less problems with it intersecting with other element as might be the case with a Wall.

well, you can do it with Stairmaker, with a little trick.
The down side is the fact that you get those tread / risers unnecessary lines.
