I am trying to become effiecent with the stair modeling tools in Revit. I have a wood structure that requires the top tread to be longer than 11". Using either of the methods or which is the better of the two to accomplish a task like this. I am using an open stringer 7" riser w/ 11" treads.

I have found that using the stair by component works well because I can give the stairs an extra riser, deselect the end with riser option so that I have the last tread at the finish floor level where I need it to be. I just can't figure out how to make the last tread longer to connect to the existing beam (12 1/4").

Thanks for your help,

Why not end with riser and model in place last tread?

I had thought about that, I was just curious if there was a way to keep the stairs a complete unit. If I go this route it creates an issue with the stringer connection also. I have attached a photo for reference.

Thanks,

What does that have to do with this?  Ending with a riser and in-place tread should work.
