Begin by understanding the primary dimensions of the marked stringer. The presenter points out a section corresponding to the stair tread, which is 11 and a quarter inches wide. He then indicates the stair riser, which measures 7 and a half inches. A smaller 2 and three-quarter inch section is also highlighted, representing the bottom-most cut for the first riser. These dimensions define the steps and are critical for accurate stringer fabrication. The top of the stringer will align with the existing floor, while the cutouts will accommodate treads and risers.
