About this asset

This Revit tag family provides a clean, professional method for annotating stair riser and thread dimensions in documentation. The tag features a clean, minimalist rectangular frame with rounded corners, designed to maintain legibility within dense architectural drawings. It is structured into two distinct horizontal fields: the upper field is labelled for riser height, while the lower field is dedicated to tread depth. The typography is a standard sans-serif font, ensuring clarity at common drawing scales such as 1:20 or 1:50. This annotation component is strictly two-dimensional, focusing on delivering precise geometric data directly from the associated stair object to the construction documentation set.

The download is a 215 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Load this RFA file into your project template or active file to enable automated stair tagging. Once loaded, use the Tag by Category tool to associate this symbol with stair elements in plan views. The labels are linked to the stair parameters, ensuring that any changes to the stair geometry are reflected accurately in the annotation. Ensure your project units are configured correctly to match the displayed numerical format for consistent scheduling and documentation output.

Essential for any project requiring detailed stair documentation, this tag is suitable for residential, commercial, and industrial building types. It is primarily used during the construction documentation stage to verify compliance with building codes regarding riser and tread dimensions. Architects and technicians will find this useful for floor plans where stair geometry must be clearly communicated to contractors. It pairs effectively with standard stair families, ensuring that critical safety and accessibility data is consistently presented throughout the entire set of architectural drawings.
