Open Tread


This stair is under construction.  Two of the components are in place: stringers and risers.  The treads are not in place.

  In the foreground you can see the concept of an open tread.  The stringer is cut in a rise  (vertical) and run (horizontal) pattern, creating a saw tooth look.  

This open tread stairs will have a support wall under the stringer.  The background stringer is a closed tread stringer and will also have a support wall.  

Rail and balusters are placed on top of the tread end creating a typical open tread stair.
