Enter the total number of steps into the Stringer Length Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Stringer Length. 

Stringer Length Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Stringer Length.

STL = S * 14
  • Where STL is the Stringer Length (inches)
  • #S is the total number of steps 

To calculate the stringer length, multiply the number of steps by 14.

How to Calculate Stringer Length?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Stringer Length.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the total number of steps.
    • The total number of steps is given as: 5.
  2. Finally, calculate the Stringer Length using the equation above: 

STL = #S * 14

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

STL = 5 * 14 = 70 (inches)


Example Problem #2: 

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

total number of steps = 7

Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator..

STL = #S * 14 = ?
