I need to put in a stair case that has 2 landings between each floor. There is 4ft inbetween each landing. Whenever I try to make the third run of stairs it says they cannot overlap. Is there a way to do this in elevation view or any way I can get around this without making seperate pieces for the stairs? Thank you

No . REVIT will do 3 run stairs but only if the runs are not above another run in the same stair. You will have to do two stairs. One with 2 runs and one with one run.

Yes you can. See similar post called "Stairs and Landings" http://www.revitcity.com/forums.php?action=viewthread&thread_id=6371

AEckerson, Your stair is a two run stair... not three.

Oops. The principle is the same, however: You sketch the parts you want "all over the place" so that The Revit doesn't get mad at you for having overlaping/intersecting lines, etc. Then you adjust the sketch to be how you want it and HOPEFULLY you can trick The Revit into compliance. If I understand the request, we are trying to make a 3-run stair where the last run doubles back on top of the first run, right? If so, I think I got it. See images.

So you just model the landings as an over-sized step, right? I guess this works well when your risers are exactly the same heights between all landings...

this is an older thread but I found it helpful. The only exception was I had to offset the 3rd run at least 5mm (to the left or right) so that the stringer lines weren't directly ontop of each other.
Has anyone else had better success with a 3-run stair?

I have tried this solution and i have not had any luck. when i try to move the third (top) run back toward the first (bottom) run, the stirngers from the first run jump back and what should be the bottoms go to the second floor. I have tried leaving up to a half inch between the run line and offsetting the riser lines but nothing has worked for me.

This has always been an issue but it has been solved in the 2013 rekease,
For pre 2013 - when you move the sketch back - don't move it to exactly overlap the lower landing .... keep it off something - try 1/256".

The stairs in 2013 are leagues ahead of 2012 and earlier versions, its about time they took care of this problem.
