how to to detach parts of the stair

[bethanhthuan]

Hi everyone, I recently working in a project and I have some issues with stair, cast in place concrete stair for more info.
The local buiding method is a little bit old-fashion, here they not mold a complete form of the stair. they just mold a kind of slab ( slanted slab) and then using brick to build the step. the slab is support by the adjacent wall and by itself. The problem is, the stair tool in revit does not have that type of stair construction so I have to figure out another way to do it in revit.
Can anyone tell me how to detach those parts of the stair. So I could manually adjust each one of those?
I have model the stair that i want in sketchup, so it could be easier for you guy to imagine. Each color is a material.
Thanks.

Hi from Spain.
Unfortunately, Revit does not allow break in parts any stair.

My solution when I have to do some like you describe is:

- Creating a sloped slab, the one that supports the bricks.
- Create a stair with only the stair steps, laying on the sloped slab.

Then I can assign each one to the proper revit phase.

But if you already have the model done in SketchUp, you could reuse it in your revit project. You can create an in place family and insert the sketchup model, if you dont mind that this new object not be an stair (stair cathegory is a system one, and cannot be assigned to new families).

What about a Stair by Component with a single stringer (middle only, no right and left). The stringer is the width of the stairs (the concrete portion in your design)? Then the tread, nosing and riser could be defined with brick material, shape and thickness.
