Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ideal step rise and run?
The ideal step rise (height) is 7-7.5 inches, and the ideal run (depth) is 10-11 inches. The sum of two rises and one run should equal 24-25 inches for comfortable stairs.
How much concrete for 3 steps?
For three standard steps (4 feet wide, 11" deep, 7" rise), you'll need approximately 7-8 cubic feet of concrete, which equals about 12-14 bags of 80lb concrete mix.
