Now imagine two 'U' shaped
stairways in the same well connecting
three floors. Each stairway has three
flights and two-quarter space (90
degrees) landings. The design requires
a continuous handrail on top of the
guard system with smooth transitions
at each intersection. The complexity of
determining the well dimensions is now
best resolved through concurrence of
each of the relevant fields of expertise
during the preliminary stages of the
design process to ensure an accurate
and efficient plan.

The concurrent design process
provides for early communication and
access to the corporate expertise of all
involved. Early communication facilitates
a comprehensive process, which supports
efficient builds that are code compliant
and achieve aesthetic objectives. From
the onset, each team member has a
shared perspective of the design, how
it is dependent upon their contribution,
and a complete understanding of what
is expected. Conflicts and challenges will
be few, identified early, and, if necessary,
easily accommodated into the final
design and construction process.

NOTE: To help support and
facilitate concurrent stairway
design, the Architectural
Woodwork Institute (AWI) and the
Stairbuilders and Manufacturers
Association (SMA) have spent
several years working together in
the development of the AWI/SMA
Standard 0643 for Wood Stair,
Handrail, and Guard Systems.
It is part of the AWI's suite of
standards to be submitted for
ANSI approval later this year. You
can review a draft of the standard
and find an abundance of great
information about stairways,
including the SMA's illustrated
Visual Interpretation of the IRC
Stair Building Codes at the SMA
website, www.stairways.org.
