STAIRS WITH CRIPPLED STRINGERS FAMILY

I am trying to Model in Revit Stairs with a Crippled Channel as the Stair Stringer. Does anyone have a Revit Family of a Stair that does this? I have a Stair that frames up to a 3'-0" square landing and the Stringers will be crippled to support the treads and also the 3'-0" square landing.

Model the stair without stringer then add the Structural Framing/Beams for stringer >> then use steel modifiers (Cope/Mitter) to Crank/Cripple the Start or End

 

That's the simple/only guess I can make without any image of the design ..

Thanks, shouldn't I be able to select a C10 member to be a section profile for the Stringer like I saw in a Youtube video. Just not sure how to add a Landing to a single run stair. Right now the only way I can get a landing is to have (2) Stair Runs.

You can draw one run and create the top landing by sketch.

Sure you can change the profile to C10 or any other which you have loaded in advance

 

You can have a landing with single run...after drawing the run (Do not finish stair) >>> switch to Landing >> Use Sketch

Thanks, the Landing part I got to work, but the Steel Member size I loaded does not show up as a selection when I click on the Section Profile when I Edit the Stairs

Make sure you load a Profile family, not a Structural Framing family.  And set the profile Usage the profile family to Generic or Stair Support.

It has to be a profile family (make sure you model it using a profile template)  and you need to change the Profile usage to Stair Support
