I worked on these stair details as a part of a larger CD set for a historic building in Philadelphia. Each serves as an egress stair, however one is historic and required special consideration. We worked to ensure the stair could be properly enclosed by a rated barrier without destruction to the existing guard and handrail.
In order to document the historic portion of the stair in Revit, I modeled the guardrail as several different families that could be edited as necessary to reflect existing conditions. I was also careful to note areas of the floors and stairs that needed to be protected or repaired.
