Rough Stair for Pool Area Formwork Crew

This was a simple temporary stair I built for one of our formwork crews - obviously unfinished, with the railing yet to be added. A simple calculation of my total rise, divided by a targeted 7" gave me something like 6.879 risers. Rounded that up to 7 risers. Knowing my top riser delivers me up to ground level, I know I've got 6 treads. Using 10.5" for tread depth, I know how to mark out the stringers. Since I had 2x10s at the ready I didn't cut the stringer and used cleats to support the treads. This approach also provided ample material to attach handrail to. I set up a quick jig and cut my cleats on the chop saw.

Because of landing the stair on uneven ground, I cut the stringers 2" long, dry-fit the stringers in place and scribed the bottom to ensure a level fit. On a side-note, I was also responsible for the formwork for that retaining wall just beyond the column footing.
