The avg stair is 7" tall and 11" deep. 

Climbing 13 avg stairs, you climb 91" or 7'-7".

Given that everyone has 13 stairs, how tall are your ceilings on your lower floor?  Avg floor joists are 10" deep.  So, 7'-7" minus 10" is 6'-9".  I would get my head cut off by your ceiling fans.

My house has 8' ceilings, but still only 13 stairs.   :ck:

Do you trip over your stairs all the time?

Ok, my guess is to get from the basement to my bedroom in my parents house is ~ 48 steps but that is a guess.

Basement to 1st floor ~ 11
1st floor to 2nd floor ~ 23
2nd floor to 3rd floor ~ 14

Do your parents by chance live in the "Full House" house?

What does that mean? Our main floor has very high ceilings.

If you have watched Full House, this is what I was referring to:

Basement to 1st floor ~ 11 (Joey Gladstone's room to main floor)
1st floor to 2nd floor ~ 23 (main floor to upstairs)
2nd floor to 3rd floor ~ 14 (upstairs to Uncle Jessie and Aunt Becky's apartment)

If you haven't seen Full House, that's a good thing. Terrible show in retrospect.

My last house had 18 stairs from main floor to 2nd floor.  House was built in 1907 or something.  The stairs were short in distance and height...thus the need for extra stairs.  And the 1st floor ceilings were 9.5 ft tall.  Current house....0 stairs.

Old timey midgets who don't mind falling down stairs build stairs like that. 

I am all about the 0 stair model.   This is what my next one will be.

Did you even read anything but the back cover of "the boy who only hit homers?" I bet you didn't. Too bad. It's the current book in our grapeseed reading club (so I probably won't be able to work you into the conversation  :rolleyes:)
