1.Findtheapproximatenumberofstepswiththefollowing
formula:
TOTAL RISE (inches)
APPROXIMATE NO. OF STEPS = 7"
Forexample,let’sassumea8'6"rise=102”
102"
APPROXIMATE NO. OF STEPS = 7"
= 14.57"
NOWTHEACTUALNUMBEROFSTEPSWOULDBETHE
WHOLENUMBER,IGNORINGANYFRACTION,i.e.,14STEPS.
Next,ndtheactualsteprisebyusingthefollowingcomputation.
TOTAL RISE (inches)
ACTUAL STEP RISE =
NO. OF STEPS
Inourexample: 102"
14
ACTUAL STEP RISE = 7.29"
2.Nowndthesteprun(ortreadwidth)bysubtracting
thesteprisefrom171/2":
STEP RUN = 17.5" - ACTUAL STEP RISE
= 17.5" - 7.29"
= 10.21"
Thus the total run is:
TOTAL RUN = STEP RUN x (NO. OF STEPS – 1)
= 10.21" x (14 – 1)
= 10.21" x (13)
= 132.73"
Finallywecalculatetheinchrise(similartotherafterinchrise):
ACTUAL STEP RISE (inches) x 12
INCH RISE =
ACTUAL STEP RUN (inches)
7.29" x 12
=
10.21"
8.57"
