You must also enter the expected length, the width of the stairs, parameters, steps, stringer and risers, if you require them in the design of your stairs. Data for calculation of quarter turn stairs (90 degrees) and landingįirst, you need to measure the height of the opening for stringer staircase - the distance between the bottom finish floor and upper finished floor. When you observing the staircase from above, it forms L-shaped structure. The difference between the straight flight stairs and 90 degrees turn lies in the fact that L-shaped stair has two flights located at 90 degrees angle and one landing connecting them.


Though they can appear similar to an Area Measurement, they are not closed shapes, and thus they can be used to calculate the length of a multi-segment line, such as when estimating cable or wiring runs. Perimeter measurements are often used to calculate the total length of all sides of a given shape. Holding down SHIFT while doing so will force the rectangle into a square.Click and drag to place a rectangular shape.The measurement is updated as you edit the markup shape. Click and drag the yellow control points to adjust the arc as necessary.Right-click on the line near point B and select Convert to Arc. Right-click on the line near point A and select Convert to Arc.In the following example, five points have been used, numbered 1-5. To add text that will appear on the markup, enter it in the Label field of the Measurements tab.Ĭlick to define several points around the area.On the Measurements tab toolbar, click Area.Refer to the Working with Curved Markups section for more detail. The example below outlines the basic procedure using an Area Measurement. You can also configure Revu to draw using curves automatically in the Markup Preferences. Revu typically takes standard measurements in straight lines, but you can add arcs to those lines in order to measure curved areas easily. Length measurement arrows will automatically position themselves inside the extension lines when there is enough room, otherwise they will automatically position themselves outside the extension lines.Hold down SHIFT to draw lines that are at horizontal, vertical, or 45° angles.Click the end points of the desired length.In the example below, the text "6 inch tall" was entered. To add text that will appear on the markup, enter it in the Label field of the Measurements tab.This description will appear on the Markups list.

Enter a description of the measurement in the Subject field of the Measurements tab.If it is not, the measurement will be temporary. In the Options section of the Measurements tab, ensure Make Annotation is checked. On the Measurements tab toolbar, click Length.The Measurements tab becomes active and the most recently used measurement mode is enabled. For a multi-segment line, like an open perimeter, see Measuring Open Perimeters below. Length measurements, which calculate a single, linear measurement, are among the most common.
