Hi Richard,
The plan for steps #1 was to follow the detail call out which is (5 risers, no handrail and 4' wide steps) We planned the V swale slope in a manner to accommodate the 5 risers detail.
The 3 risers rule that we discovered the same day we started the steps caused the elongated steps construction and the consumption of timber beyond expectations.
I am planning to construct the remainder of the steps 6' wide with handrail so we can go as many risers as possible without the need for a landing. This will allow for a faster install
and more rise.
No worries, I am ready for the handrail installation.
Thank you

Am I correct that all of the steps at the west end (steps #1 & #2) are 3 risers then a landing, so that all (48) steps are 4’-0” wide and there are no handrails on this entire series?
As steps #3 are 4 risers, will you do a handrail here or modify how many you place in this location series? Then with the long stretch of steps #4 through #26, with some (3) or less
risers while some are indicated as up to (6) risers, are you building some as 4’-0” wide while others are 6’-0” wide due to being more than 3 risers?
I understand you are working on a CAD drawing to further analyze this long run. And, the actual field elevation changes make the final decision, are you trying to build the whole series
with a max of (3) risers prior to a landing throughout?

Gentlemen,
Following are some pictures of the completed steps#1.
These steps are much longer and more risers and landings than shown on the plans. I almost ran out of timber.
Plan calls out for 10 risers at this location, we installed 48 risers.
