5. Example 2 – Stairs
|
Building stairs involves some interesting numeracy.
There are three things to consider. The height of the stairs is called the rise. The distance across is called the run.
Builders also need to consider how people climb.
This requires a balance so that steps are not too high and are of even height, and that the landing is long enough for an adult foot.
