TYSM!! Im really happy to know that the controls arent just working on the app but also in the chrome. And while doing this stuff ive learn more stuff such as putting a measurement, lining up with measurements, compontent, ect.
Whoa.! You made so clear to create different stairs. To be honest I left my passion towards modelling in the year of 2011. Moreover, I would like to start up again on the same path which can give a better growth towards my career and financial benefits. Thanks for your tutorials. I'll be grateful to watch and improve my skills as I didn't get any better skilled programmer on the same.
He Justin! Nice to do a video on stairs! As you know I do a lot of stairs. I used some extensions and even bought the s4u stair extension (which is not easy to use). In the end I draw my own stairs using all kind of methods as shown in your video. I really love staircases end big old halls. Looking forward to your video on spiral staircase. Thanks again!
Lol - I was starting to film the spiral staircase video and realized I was over 26 minutes long, so I figured just making a separate video was the best choice :p - Thanks for watching!
When designing, people often leave the stairs to the end, after allocating an "area" at the beginning, which then gets infringed upon multiple times until it's time to try to shoe-horn a legitimate staircase into a space that wasn't laid out for one, with lighting, switches (electrical) , natural lighting (daytime) and things like door swings, security, ventilation and handicap access all being addressed under limited circumstances. Build the stairs first. Get it right and shoe-horn all the other stuff around the stairs. It took me ten years to figure that out.
Yes sir, as a designer, I can't agree more. It can derail your whole design when the city comes back refusing to approve a staircase (too steep, for instance) at that late stage and cause massive revisions and unhappy clients. Knowing this upfront and knowing the IRC or IBC max/min you must design to will save your neck. I prefer to have a simple block 3D dummy model for spatial tests, and a standard footprint in 2D to pop in while laying out plans so I know early on that it should work. In the 80/20 rule, this is a 20 that speeds up the 80 later.
@@Thesketchupessentials Hi mate, I really I appreciate your valuable SkethUp videos, can you please send me how to draw a radius in dogbone specimen, so I can 3D print it do some experiments on it , I have a radius of R76 and I drew it as 0.76 is it OK or is there any method that I can follow. Thanks Adel
Justin, couple of items needing addressing on how to build stairs efficiently is the legal parameters the code will inevitably force real world builds to conform to, so anyone seriously designing a staircase to build when required to meet code needs to work from code up. IRC 2015 allows max steepness of 7.75" risers and 10" treads with 1" nosing so because rise/run is so crucial to stair design and the surrounding structure they serve, I always begin with a profile method at 7.75x10 to set riser height to real ceiling. Real floor height is another key issue: most newbies or non builders won't count on real world ceiling/floor system thicknesses. You can't span an open floorplan situation with 2x6 thick joists. Most floor truss folks want no less than 16" and add to this 2 layers of ply wood for "framing" thickness. And most trades and builders go floor trusses for the MEP items to run easily in the webs. So we plan these in new builds. So, as you know, from slab to 2nd flr framed thickness is the real rise you go off. So for my profile method, my run is set off the 10" treads required to stay under the max riser ht. A simple stretch and check of my profile stair builder like you made is done to check I'm not too tall at the riser ht, then I go component treads from there, perhaps component risers. Then whatever finish floor you like, your components all update to this. Railings are also code regulated: 4" spheres can never be allowed to pass the ballusters or rails, so this can really tweak your design if you're not aware of it. Assembly Builder rocks this aspect. Use profile method to set rise/run real world, then run stair case builder in Assembly builder and tweak components to suit your style requirements, railing etc. I look forward to trying the 1001 bit tools option as it looks like it can cut down my "sizing" test time via parametric builds. Nice. You address a huge hurdle to fast 3D interior design in Sketchup, THANKS!
It always looks so simple when you demonstrate it step by step (pardon the pun), but the clarity of your explanation is inspiring and eventually, I can only hope that the process will become second nature.
I've just discovered something that speeds up and improves the reliability of SketchUp immensely and I would like to know if it works for others too. I run AVG Tuneup in turbo mode on my Windows 7 machine, which cuts out any fancy fonts and background programs and this not only speeds up my SketchUp work but crucially it gives me virtually 100% reliability. For example in a days work, I might experience 5 to 10 crashes per day creating SketchUp models but with turbo mode - NONE. This would point to Windows and Microsoft as being the culprits for SketchUp crashes. Has anyone else had the same experience?
Great ideas. Wanted to add with the fourth and fifth idea once you create a stair segment you can group that into a component and then copy and position that whole segment into the next segment.
Hey man love the videos !!!! Looking in to buying this program . Question when you built handrail to what ever you want . Will it give you true length measurements and angles or the hole drawing ? So I could make a cut list and fab up ? Thanks Brody
Hey Justin and all. Quick question I am hoping to get some help with. I am pretty new to SketchUp. I am trying to model a winding staircase with a couple landings going down a hillside. 3 steps with a landing, repeated 5 or 6 times over the course of about 100'. Snaking back and forth. I am failing miserably. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
6:29 I don't have an option of converting into cylinders. Does it require an extension? Would be helpful if i get a video or some sort of tutorial to get extensions as I haven't added any yet
Hi sir, I really find your videos interesting as you explain in detail. I would like it if you could teach a method to model an Elevator in sketchup Thank you!!
Someone might have mentioned this already, I can turn one of the component tread 180 degrees before you copy/move for next fright so the handrail should follow same direction, right? Thanks for the video though. I've got a lot to learn from ya!
.before 10 days i wached video in your's youtube channel.i did not know about sketchup. i learnt with you.like this you are my teacher.and i respect my tacher.accept me as a student. i m sory if i made any mistake because my engilsh is not good
hello justin i know you want maybe read this message..got any video on how to build lifts (excalaters) for buildings and homes that need lifts for people with disabilities. as there doesnt seem to be any tuts around cheers.
Hi Justin, great video, enjoyed it an learned a lot. The text references might be less intrusive if in smaller font and up in the top right of the screen where not much happens. Thanks for all your efforts.
I'm having a hard time selecting both the unit rise and unit run at the same time , could you elaborate a bit more for beginners like myself? Obrigado*
I've learned some of the very basics on my own , therefore , the staircase I've build pulling from the wall , I had to chalk line basically every unit rise and unit run and then protruding from the wall with the push/ pull button , but I've never copy and pasted , literally, every single made from scratch
No offense Ralph, but I literally at 2:01 say that I'm going to use the move tool in copy mode, then I give you step by step instruction on exactly how to use the tool. If you're not going to listen to the instruction, then I'm not really sure how to help you.
Hello!, I have a problem in the 2nd method, after I copied the steps. mine doesn't divided. so I can't use the push tool to make in 3d... Do you have any idea ?
My method, draw a line from where you want your stairs to end and to where you want to begin and then make a 90° triangle using that line as the long side you now draw lines from the middle of the two straight lines to the middle of the pyramid, you do the same with quarters, eights, sixteens etc until you have the desired effect, it's easy to do and it's fast
plus when I downloaded "Pipe Along Path" it says "the selected path either branches or is not continuous, cannot make pipe extrusion, re-select a single continous path"
Literally, you're the KING of SketchUp!!!
Lol - glad you liked it :)
Hi Justin, you got a like straight away after your friendly "what's up guys" just love it. Thank you for posting your very helpful tutorials!!!
whoa ~! I just realized there are so many flexible uses of basic tools to create stairs and appreciate your valuable sharing ~!
I am grateful to you for these useful lessons, I wish you success.
Every type made me go 'whoa!" Literally!! 😂 wonderful!!
Glad you liked it! :)
Me too!

Refuso Againo dope
In architecture school they thaught us to first get the staircases and emergency exits right.
Thank you for sharing such precious work🎉🎉
Thank you for this tutorial!
Glad it was helpful!
Tip: 01:55 Enable Endpoints in your Styles tab to better see the divide lines.
Nice one - thanks!
thank you for the excellent tutorial. two thumbs up!
hello
Great videos, but you are insane with Sketch up mate, you crazy guru master!
easy to learn & easy to understand.
wonderful!! Thanks for the Video
The ideas were really helpful and awesome. Thanks buddy!
you are a legend! no other skwtchup tutorial on TH-cam beats this, well done. Have you thought about uploading material on LinkedIn Learning?

Wow! Justin you are really an expert. Thanks for the video
Glad you liked it!
Love the tutorials. Id like to see something like a roof construction. I made a wooden hexagon cabin and cant really build the roof well
Loved it very much.
Another fantastic video
Thanks for updating 👍
:)
whoop whoop ! location and site modelling , I've been looking for this for so long !!
Did I talk about location and site modeling in my stairs video?
hey, thanks for this Video, can I ask where does it came from the setting in convert line into pipe?
It always looks so simple when you demonstrate it step by step (pardon the pun), but the clarity of your explanation is inspiring and eventually, I can only hope that the process will become second nature.
LOL - once you've done it a few times, you'll pretty much do it automatically :)
hard to believe nobody has pointed out that pun before
Fantastic. Thank you.
Thank you too!

Ive been using the second method but will definitly use the latter also
your class is amazing....
Glad you think so!
Thankyou this really helped!👍
Excellent! Thank you! Very helpful!:)
You're very welcome!

It´s perfect video. Wonderful. Thank you !
Excellent! But why do you do a "reverse faces" after you make an object? What is that doing?
nice tutorial!! very infromative.
Glad you liked it!
Thank you for the video! TheSketchUpEssentials Rocks! :)

I don't have an option of converting into cylinders. Does it require an extension? Would be helpful if i get a video or some sort of tutorial to get extensions as I haven't added any yet
That’s lines to tubes
Does it make sense to go through the Flowery process - it looks complicated. Can't you just bend with copying, rotate and move?
at 9:33 how do you multiplicate that stair?
An answer here please.
Do you use a space mouse? It makes working In sketchup so much better for me.
Thanks love your videos
Thanks for watching!
Thank you very much for this useful tutorial!
Thanks for watching!
Hi Justin! I can’t find the “convert arcs, lines etc to cylinder” is it available in sketch up pro 2022?
how do you do the move and copy of the 3rd stair? I cannot perform it myself.
Hi sir,
I really find your videos interesting as you explain in detail.
I would like it if you could teach a method to model an Elevator in sketchup
Thank you!!
Someone might have mentioned this already, I can turn one of the component tread 180 degrees before you copy/move for next fright so the handrail should follow same direction, right? Thanks for the video though. I've got a lot to learn from ya!
SU plugin makes it much faster at a price please support him at patreon! I learning quick tricks!
this video help me a lot
Glad it helped!
Is there way I can find “ convert arcs to cylinders” on Ipad??? Or I draw it manually ?😮 thanks
.before 10 days i wached video in your's youtube channel.i did not know about sketchup. i learnt with you.like this you are my teacher.and i respect my tacher.accept me as a student. i m sory if i made any mistake because my engilsh is not good

Thank u !! Really helpful
you rock man!
hello justin i know you want maybe read this message..got any video on how to build lifts (excalaters) for buildings and homes that need lifts for people with disabilities. as there doesnt seem to be any tuts around cheers.
if i may ask why is reversing faces essential in the design? does it make for better geometry or just a personal preference?
Here you go - th-cam.com/video/Y3kJlaXiNcA/w-d-xo.html
thank you 🥰
Thank you. So helpful.
amazing, thank you.
Thank you!
I've subscribe thank you for all your tutorial.
the flowify method twisted my brain
Thank you for uploading
liked the way of teaching by illustration
I'm just amazed.
Wish to have more time as you are posting more videos then I have time to watch. ;)
LOL - Going as fast as I can! :) Thanks for watching Patryk!
The best really. Just a little bit delay your moves on dialog box!
Thanks it was fun! Even more fun playing it at 200% speed :D
HA - glad you enjoyed it! That will definitely get you through the video faster!
Very helpful! Thankyou so much
Thanks for watching!

When the lines are deleted on the side of the step it turns hollow with no face, can someone help with this.. thanks

Glad I could help!
Love it.
Thank you for the basic info
Glad you liked it!
Thanks so much for this video!
Thanks for watching!
Very nice work I like too much
😎
In the 3rd part, doing the railings but cant seems do it, cause its missing in my tool what you are using. what do i do?
Thanks so much
Thanks for watching!
HI I LUV UR VIDS!!
also how should u know what is the size of ur house?
excuse me, i'm new with sketchup. can i ask which tool you use in 2:00 ?
No offense Ralph, but I literally at 2:01 say that I'm going to use the move tool in copy mode, then I give you step by step instruction on exactly how to use the tool. If you're not going to listen to the instruction, then I'm not really sure how to help you.

plus when I downloaded "Pipe Along Path" it says "the selected path either branches or is not continuous, cannot make pipe extrusion, re-select a single continous path"
sketchup pro 2020 doesn't supported by Flowify and adebeo_pushline. what's the alternative ?
Where do I type how many times multiply sth in copy and move action?
