Out of curiosity, what does the stair guy do with the overhang onthe Advantech? Does he have to trim it off? Why do you leave an overhang? Code for stairs under construction maybe?
We don’t build framed stairs here. At this point in construction we would build a temporary staircase out of framing lumber and it’s not attached to the walls. The drywall or plaster runs through and when we’re ready for trim, the stairs are either built in a shop off site or come as a kit with routered stringers and wood shims.
Great staircase. Love that you use 4 stringers, even on short half runs. And yes, we always add a note to the plans to keep the contractors and subcontractors honest: "BUILDER MUST CHECK AND VERIFY ALL DETAILS AND DIMENSIONS AND REPORT ANY DISCREPANCIES TO THE DESIGNER PRIOR TO ANY ON SITE CONSTRUCTION" - I literally cut and pasted that out of one of my drawing sets. I always add: USE DIMENSIONS ONLY - DO NOT SCALE PLAN to my plans, cuz, if you know, you know.
I cant get Advantech where I live. I'd have to drive 2 hours away to get it and its way to expensive to ship, even to store. I can get LP Premium but in my area I dont have confidence in subflooring material like that. I'm not a contractor anymore. I am just working on my own home and I've started to use plywood more and more now because of my limited options.

I like using LVL for stringers. But when using 2x12 I will set the stringer and make a mark top and bottom against the wall and then snap a line for my stringer to follow
Great video Tim! I've got a question about the nails from that Paslode nailer. My understanding is that it shoots clipped head nails. Back when i was in trade school in Seattle in 2019 I remember hearing that clipped head nails don't meet code in our area. I trust you know the code but I'm curious about the discrepancy. Perhaps this is the code for King county but not Kitsap? I work on Bainbridge Island and would love to use that nailer but I don't want to be in violation of code. Thanks for all the free education you provide!
