Hello
For several days now, I've been tearing my hair out trying to design a staircase with a central stringer unscrewed, without success.
The idea is simple, I would like to have the lengths of tubes and the developed of the 4 sheets that reconstitute the stringer at the place where it "rotates".
Can you tell me a method to follow to achieve this please?
I think I'll use a 160x80x3 tube and 3mm sheet metal. I use solidworks 2011.
In advance, thank you!
Damien
Hello
could you put your piece in the post because I believe there is a problem with STEP. I can't seem to download it.
Good evening, and thank you for your answer.
here is a new version of the STEP file.
Maybe it's easier in IGS?
I just downloaded your STEP, there is no silt in your file.
Hello
To do this, I use a propeller and a surface scan. Then I split the surfaces and thicken them. I finish by converting it into sheet metal and then unfolding. The unfolded ones are relatively accurate. The few defects that there are corrected by clamping and welding during manufacturing.
Indeed, I didn't put any stringer on the WWTP because no "conclusive" test...
I tried your method, Yves, but I can't get the shape I wanted. There must be a parameter to use so that the curve does not rotate the rectangle...
Have you gone through these topics:

hello Yves.T, how do you do the conversion to sheet metal after the thickness of the surface?
It asks me to select a flat or fixed face or a linear edge on a cylindrical end face..... PFFF
I'm stuck...
