AI GeneratedThis tutorial provides a step-by-step guide on how to draw a U-shaped staircase in isometric view. It covers the essential transition from 2D floor plan calculations to a 3D representation, focusing on precise proportions, the construction of individual steps, the addition of structural slabs, and the final detailing of handrails.
In this video we are going to learn how to draw a u-shaped staircase in isometric view.
The first step is to draw the 2D floor plan of the stairs. So each flight consists of
eight steps with a thread depth of 30 cm, resulting in a total length of 2 m, 40 cm for each
flight. If we consider the stair width to be 110 cm, then the landing length will be
twice the width of the stairs, so it will be 2 m and 20 cm. We assume that
to reach from the ground level to the first floor level, we need to climb about 16 steps,
each with a riser height of 20 cm, reaching a total height of 3 m, 20 cm. These calculations
are very important for accurately drawing the staircase, so just pay attention to this
stage. Now let's move on to the 3D drawing. In the first stage, we draw this plan in isometric view
with correct proportions. At the end, we should have a rectangle measuring 2 m, 20 cm by 3 m,
50 cm. In the second stage, we give a height to the landing and we extrude the landing plan
rectangle up to 1 m, 60 cm. We repeat the same process for the next landing at the final height
of 3 m, 20 cm. In the third stage, we draw the slope of the stairs by connecting the starting
points of each flight to the landing. Now we need to draw the individual steps. So, we divide the
slope of each flight into 8 equal parts. In each section, we draw the side profile of the steps
on both sides and then connect them. Then you can see we have our individual steps.
We should remember that in isometric drawing, all lines must be aligned with the x, y, and z-axis
and remain parallel. Next, we repeat this process for the second flight until all 16 steps are
drawn. As you can see, the threads of this flight are not fully visible
because of the angle of our drawing. We also need to remember to draw the thickness of the
concrete stair slab, the stranger slab. Finally, it's time to draw the handrails.
We draw the first and last baluster of each flight and then connect them parallel to the
stair slope. Then we simply add one baluster on each thread. For better clarity, I shade the side
thickness of the stairs. Instead of hatching, you can use just a gray marker such as
WG2 or 3. Now, let's complete the remaining railings, making sure they remain parallel to
the stair slope. If we learn these steps well, these stages of drawing well, we will be able to
draw any types of staircase easily. This is the easiest method for drawing a u-shaped staircase.
In future videos, we will draw stairs in different types of perspectives, so
