Ron,

 

We have this formula in SoftList to calculate the length of the stringers. Does not seem 100% accurate but close enough. Might give you something to work with.

If you require accurate stringer length use the formula below that accounts for the additional riser at the top of the run.

Hi

Try this site. It has calculations cutting lists for virtually any building component.

Very useful.

The formulas are there which can be used in softlist.
