1. 3:54–5:04 Calculate the Number of Treads and Understand the Logic From How to Measure Stair Rise and Run, Step 4: Determine Number of Treads (Steps)

   The number of treads is calculated using the formula: Number of Treads = Number of Risers - 1. This rule is explained by a small illustrative diagram, demonstrating that the final 'tread' of the staircase is typically the floor slab of the upper level, and therefore not considered a separate, individual tread that needs to be constructed as part of the staircase run. Therefore, if there are 22 risers, the number of treads will be 22 - 1 = 21 treads.
