LightRays Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I can model easily in max but I'm crap at math and architectural units. I need to design a staircase and the riser height is 5-7/8" in the DWG. What is the height in decimal inches? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Hawley Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Divide the numerator by the denominator. That is: divide 7 by 8 = .875 Math skills are good to have in this industry. However, if you stick with it you will eventually memorize this since architecture uses them all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
