[Applause] [Music] today i'm going to show you guys on how to design a step and to use the step 2 in archicad that is tier 2 okay and let's just let me show you guys something real quick so let's say you just click on design and you click on the you click on the statue when you click all right or you click those turns on a little bit let me just say you just click like this you click okay that means you are done as you can see there is a 20 stairs here and this is the upper side to get on the story level okay so if you go to the 3d view to check out what this is i don't have something like this okay as you can see something like this very very simple okay now let me go to the ground floor now this is one particular type of stair let's click on the stat2 again click drag it up and let's say you want to have you want to do a kind of a different type of stair now let me see you want to go to this other side here so let's say when they clamp when someone is climbing the stairs uh you want you want the person to stop here so you click okay now let's move to this other side here automatically the stay is going to uh it's going to give this side another kind of a landing so let's say you just uh just want to click so you click this side here okay i go up then click like this and let's say you want another kind of a landing here so you don't want to stretch the person up you can just click this landing here now uh ikea is going to ask for the dimension of the landing you can see you want to land it to be 900 so click on android and click enter then click on this flight and continue so when you continue you can just click and you're done so we have a landing here another landing here and another london so we have three londons so if you could click go to 3db you're gonna have something like this as you can see it is the first landing this is second landing and this is the third landing okay let's go to another kind of stay again so still clicking on the stair tool you click and let's use this aqua device define target and let's just click and let's try and make it kind of a nice uh nice arc like this okay so you have something like this something weird like this goes to the 3d view to check it out and uh you have something like this huh yeah something like this it's kind of a it's kind of a weird figure kind of a weird step but you know you guys know what i'm talking about now let's go to another kind of a stair so click this and uh let me let me let me explain something for you guys now let's let me draw a kind of a wall let's say you have a wall let's say this is the building you are trying to draw so what we just want to do is click on the stat tool and let's say you want to start drawing from here well as you can see this step is actually drawn at the other end which you don't want so what you want to do is click this side here click it and change the figure to be this one right here so click on this and this step is going to change this other side as you can see so click that coin there then uh come here and draw click that point there and take it like this then you can keep stretching it i don't see you know uh the ones the one that you feel is you know suits your drawing and you can come back or you can just go to the normal with normal dimension that i can just give you and click so when you click you're gonna have something like this so let's go to the 3d aspect to check it out and as you can see you have something like this but let me turn let me can i'm trying to raise this up so it looks realistic let's say you want to edit this this tear now sometimes when you click on the stair you're going to be having something like this let me just scroll this side so i can show you guys what i'm talking about you might have something like this let me show you let me show you guys properly you might have something like this like this as you can see the angle is actually giving you my almost something like this so once it gives you something like this you can just click on the stair there scroll scroll your mouse wheel and uh select where you at let's select this pack okay so select this you can come here and change this lantern i'll go to any kind of uh figure you want so you can click this to change it back and it's going to be straight back i'm going to explain something right here if you guys look at this right here as you can see this is 3000 if it's giving you something like this all you want to do is click the stair then come here and change the the top the top offset to top link story which you need to be zero click enter so it's going to come on this particular area the edges the wedge is supposed to be and for the for this other side so you can do the same thing click on it and change this quantity to be zero click enter so it's gonna have something like this so let's say if i also drew a slab we're gonna have something like this as you can see i'm gonna know something like this if you guys don't want let me see if you don't want this would this order on the step if you don't want it you can click once you click this step let's click on the settings dialogue here then you can click on the finish and untick the finish and click on ok and you're going to have something just clean like this okay so you don't have you don't have all this on yours tap the wood stuff on your step you can just you can just add the restep you know and don't forget you can also model this you can model this click on the step the consensus dialog now you can click on structure okay you can look for the kind of structure you guys want to use i don't know depending on the one that comes to mind you can use this you can use this you know the different kind of flight structure you guys want even the landing structure anyone you guys want here so let's click on the flight here and let's try and see if we can model this so you can always change this as you can see you can change this to be maybe 150 okay can you just be 150 that's this side change to 150 so let's click this and click on the settings dialog let's see if we can let's see if how to model this and here we go so i'm just going to click on all of this all of this click this unless then it should be titanium white click on ok so the step changes to be a white state now okay as you can see everything is all white here well you know normally you don't you can't really get you can't use a white step that's going to be that's it so click this you can model it again remember at the flight here you can model this camera this side to be something like this let me take this and uh let's say this side changes to be this click on okay so you have this kind of a wood design on it click this side here click on the settings dialog i can change this particular side here let's give it uh this kind of color so you have this kind of color too so this is these are the ways you can model your step in archicad okay remember if you guys want to also model the down you can click on the settings on the step click on the settings dialog and come here and change it to be any kind of color i'm going to use white click on ok so the down changes to be white so these are the ways you can modify the step okay sometimes even when i'm even drawing when i'm drawing like on the plan on the plan sometimes i don't go with using line two as you can see mine i just use line two so i don't get that's if i just want to present my drawing this one i just want to present it i'm not going to go into the 3d aspects that if the clients don't want the 3d aspect of the drawing so let's say for this um for this drawing let me let us use the statue for this drawing as you can see we are starting from here to this other side here so what you want to do now is always do is click on the statue click on settings dialog now i'm going to be i'm going to be i'm going to be serious about this now because now it's going to ask me from me download now where did i want to what where do i want the steps to stop on the first story okay now this is the steer width normally in my country minimum is 900 but uh you can change yours to be one two or one thousand depending on how you know you guys want it now you can come here this is the number of risers number of steps you want you can use to be 15 if it changes to be 15 this your riser height is going to increase which is 200 200 is very very high in my country you always prefer which is 150 so the old people can also work on it so uh corres can also climb the steps so when you use 150 this is going to change back to be 20 okay so you can change your going here you can change the max the max you want i'm going to go with 300 okay and uh the riser height to be just 150 but let's say 180 or one yeah i'm just saying 180 so this is just going to give you the maximum on maximum minimum this is you telling like what you want okay so about this you can say you want to start with uh let me say wind out with yeah with equal angles of this okay depending on the kind of uh with the kind of design you want so click on ok now let's see let's start from here click this all right uh let's start from here and as you can see our step is starting from this other side the way i said area so you can click this side here and change this to this so click this stretch it like this and as you can see our step is going to exit this particular place and there's nothing we can do about it because we have 20 we have 20 uh steps so so this is always going to be okay so let's go to 3d aspect of it so this is this is how it's going to look like okay this is that's going to look like i'm gonna climb this side and keep going up until you get to the location and as you can see this is on top of the building the way i said earlier let me just try and cut this out so you guys can see what i'm talking about to open the step you can click on this on the on the slab tool that's okay um look at this this is the ground floor i'm supposed to go on the first story so when you click the slab okay click this node here now click this subtract from polygon now trace out the side you want the step to be to be seen press it out make sure you're selecting this trace it out like this sorry after we do this again click this please make sure you're clicking this and select this and make sure you draw just cut out the part you don't want it to be sent gonna cut the spot out like this you want i mean you want the steps to be seen rather so i'm just gonna cut those parts out like this and click this idea now once this is done go to the 3d aspect check it out as you can see it is opened just the way it's supposed to be okay now if you guys check this out you're gonna see that the step is actually landing here which make which means we can't use this kind of a step okay i'm gonna have to go with another kind of a design okay so what for tutorial seek let me just see click this for this side to be down change this oversight to be zero click enter so it's going to match exactly with the for the drawing okay as you can see it's gonna match exactly with the drawing but i'm gonna i'm gonna show you guys something now as you can see the step is actually reaching this particular end if i click this click on the settings dialog here and i come to change this riser to be 710 click ok it's going to reduce to this other side here so this is one of the ways you can so you can actually do it so it's just when it goes and plants what you actually have by reducing the the step so you can let me let me go up okay but what you guys should notice that if i click on this and click on the settings dialog since i already increased increase i already reduced the step my going is going to be uh sorry my riser is going to be height is going to be 171. so if we go to the first story you're gonna be seeing something like this and if you go to this ground floor you're gonna have some place now let's say you want to add the railing that's very very easy let's say you want to add the railing now what you just want to do is i'm not going to really explain the ruling settings here so you can click on the ruling to hold down alt click that edge there then click i like to load i don't have something like this okay we're gonna have something like this but if you guys look at this properly you can see that the ruling is outside of the of the step so what you want to do is click this railing come here click here and turn it to be this other side here and it's going to be inside the inside step okay the way it's supposed to be so you have something like this okay now you can also put normally you're supposed to put the railing on this other side so hold down alt click the railing click that point there and make sure this is inside as you can see this is outside so click this side here click this other side here so it can be inside now trend click here and move it to the other side there you can click and this is done as you can see this is how to do this nice step like this okay now uh i'm just going to move this inside this wall i mean the the slab i'm not going gonna move it inside okay so it's gonna be cut really nice like this so i don't think this piece is even enough for people to be walking by so if i measure this side to this side okay i think it's okay it's not bad so as you can see this is how to do a step in archicad there are various ways and various techniques let's say you guys don't you guys don't want to allow the step to be linked to the first story all you want to do is click on statue click on the settings dialog now click this top link click on it and click not linked okay so when you click not linked you can come here and change the heights you want the step to stop and we want to step to stop at one five okay you can click on okay so once once you start drawing let me say once you start drawing the step let me saying 3d when once you keep going it's just going to stop because your butcher you've actually set the height of the step to be one five okay the atomistic is gonna be one five just like that just we did it since it's not going to be linked so it's going to be one five like this you can send it to the one eight let me show you guys so this is going to look like it's just going to be 10 step okay now if you go to the to the statue again click on the settings dialog if you click flexible all flexible is going to give you is that if you click on ok now oxford is going to give that when you click you can keep drawing unlimited just the way you want as you can see so let's see this is i'm saying i want to draw to this side here let's see what's gonna give me let's see what's gonna be let's go to 3d view so this is what flexible means you just keep drawing like one of those uh anime cartoons where people will go to the heaven to heaven so this is what it looks like i just keep going like that i keep going i don't know i don't know who actually wants to walk this kind of a step it kind of looks like a little step there's no china and the chinese uh you know the part of the world so let us delete this so delete now we have this step where this flexible is actually good is that maybe you want to design a kind of a step for this foundation okay so you can click on the stair tool now come back once which i'm shampooing this right come back okay click this i'm trying to see what you want to click this other side here then click so you have something like this when you click this you're gonna have something like this as you can see it fits ctrl d i'll try to move this here so you have something like this so this is one of the easiest way uh you can do this but if you don't want this side to be like this you can click on the stair click on the settings dialog click on the flight click the flight structure settings and click this and click on ok so you're going to have something like this so this is one of the ways uh you can do this and if you remember if you want to increase from the calculation here let's say you want to you want to increase those there you have one two you can click this and click on the settings dialog click the stair and come here and change it if you want to click enter that's going to increase so click this ctrl d and bring it to this other side here so you have something like this this is one of the easiest way you can do that but normally i don't always use a stair i always use something else okay i always use this laptop create that but i also want to show you guys that these are the ways you can do it you can model your stair you can also give a kind of a weird design based on your own uh you know your own design and you can make a short stay like this giving it the kind of height you want okay and the other the other stair your channel stay like i deleted you can also do that and the inside one as you can see with the railing with the flights as you can see the flight and the railing so these are the ways you can use to create to stay in archicad thank you for watching my video if my video has been not really up to you
