LEARNING OUTCOMES FOR STAIR BUILDING RESOURCE  This resource is intended to be used in conjunction with one or more practical sessions, when the learner will be engaged in tasks measuring, marking out and forming the various components of a closed string stair. The learning outcome will be:  Cognitive Domain – by the end of the session learners will be able to demonstrate an understanding of how to set out and form the components required for a simple flight of closed string stairs.

LEARNING OUTCOMES FOR STAIR BUILDING RESOURCE Assessment of learning will be both Question and Answer together with assessment of cognitive learning during associated practical sessions. Other outcomes connected with these practical sessions are:  Psychomotor Domain – by the end of the practical session the learners will be able to use the various hand/electric tools required to form the joints and components of a flight of stairs.  Affective Domain – during practical sessions the learner will demonstrate confidence when measuring, marking out and using the various hand tools to produce the components of a flight of stairs.

STAIR FITTING PROCEDURE Step 1. Fix the wall string, cutting it off at floor level to suit the skirting height. Step 2. Use a hand saw to cut the seat cut on the string at the foot of the stairs. Step 3. The stairs is now level on the floor. Step 4. Steps 1 and 2 can be repeated at the top with the underside cut out to sit on to the floor trimmer and the top tread is cut away so that it sits on the trimmer. Step 5. Mortise the outer string into the newel posts at each end. Step 6. Fix newel posts in place. The bottom newel can be held in position using various methods and this will depend on the composition of the floor. For rigidity and maximum strength the top newel should be notched over the trimmer joist and screwed or bolted to it.

STAIR FITTING PROCEDURE Step 7. Fix the wall string to the wall in approximately four places below the step, usually with 75 mm screws and plugs. Fixing should be below the steps, unless access is difficult in which case the resulting hole should be plugged. The balustrades and hand rail can be fitted once the stairs are secure. Step 8. Once the staircase has been fitted, it should be protected to prevent damage. Strips of hardboard should be pinned to the top of each tread with a lath to ensure the nosing is protected. Use the same method to protect the newel posts.

GLOSSARY Access- being able to use or approach something A way to approach something e.g. the only access to the house was through a dirt road. Adequate-something that is fit/ suitable for what you need. e.g. the wood is adequate for what we need. Approximately-an estimate/something close to the exact. e.g. we approximated that we would need 10 planks of wood. Assemble-to put or fit together e.g. to assemble the first step

GLOSSARY Carpentry-a carpenter installs the joinery components e.g. he works in carpentry Component-a part or element of something e.g. the components of a staircase are listed below Calculations-the act of using maths to calculate e.g. my calculations show that we will need 50 labourers on site Continuous-to be uninterrupted e.g. the staircase needs to flow in a continuous manner

GLOSSARY Erect-to build and construct e.g. to erect a house Function-to perform an activity or action e.g. the machine has stopped functioning Functional Skills- maths and English skills developed to aid understanding of everyday circumstances e.g. Functional Skills maths helps us calculate measurements Horizontal-to be flat or level e.g. the wood must be horizontal

GLOSSARY Installation-a piece of equipment ready for use. to be put in place e.g. The staircase is ready for installation Inaccuracy-to be incorrect or make a mistake e.g. the measurements are inaccurate Method-a way of doing something e.g. you must follow the correct method Legislation-laws made to be followed e.g. building legislation tells us what laws we must follow when working on site

GLOSSARY Joinery-manufactures wooden components e.g. I am interested in starting a joinery course Method-a way of doing something/ carrying something out e.g. you must follow the correct method to work safely Legislation-laws and rules put in place to be followed e.g. building legislation tells us what rules we must follow Regulations-rules created by authority to be stuck to in order to follow legislation e.g. the regulations are displayed in the office

GLOSSARY Requirement-something that is needed e.g. it is a requirement that all site workers are aware of the PPE needed on site Terminology-specialist words linked with a subject e.g. when you study construction, you will start to use new terminology Vertical-to be upright e.g. Put the wood between the vertical supports of the frame.
