To begin the layout, start with the bottom straight section. Measure and mark the full depth of the straight tread section, which is 11 inches, and then add the 6 inches required for the narrowest part of the first winder tread. This defines the initial straight run. Next, draw a line at a 45-degree angle from the outer edge of this first winder tread measurement. This line will define the outer boundary of the first angled section of the staircase.
