Stair Riser Calculator
A stair riser calculator is a tool that helps determine the optimal dimensions for staircase construction. It calculates the number of steps (risers) and their individual heights based on the total vertical height (rise) that needs to be covered and the desired riser height. This ensures compliance with building safety standards, provides comfortable step dimensions, and helps in efficient space planning. Properly calculated risers prevent tripping hazards and ensure stair safety while optimizing material usage and construction costs.
Calculation Formula
Formula used:
Number of Risers = Total Rise ÷ Riser Height
Adjusted Riser Height = Total Rise ÷ Number of Risers
Note: Riser count is rounded up to nearest whole number
