Metal Staircase U Shape Plan
Here is a free metal staircase u shape plan block, drawn as a clean staircase block ready for a floor plan and matching section or elevation. Every line is kept crisp and to scale, with no stray entities, which makes the block quick to recolour, move or re-layer. It includes plan and elevation views, so it lines up with the rest of your drawing set and stays consistent from sheet to sheet. Placed in a layout it ties a plan and section together for vertical circulation, saving you from redrawing a metal staircase u shape plan from scratch every time. Files are provided in DWG, ready to open in AutoCAD and most CAD software. It is part of our stairs library and is free for personal and commercial use, with no attribution and no signup required.

Dimensions & scale
Sizing & units
Stairs are drawn to typical going and riser conventions; check the run and headroom against your floor-to-floor height. The block is drawn at 1:1 in millimeters, so insert it at scale 1 and adjust only if your drawing uses different units.
