Testing Monday and just got confused with the how to use the cut stair.

No.
but this tool in the ncarb program is a pain
It's not hard. Practice.
....do i need to put height of the stair on each side of it...
Of course.
i guess i am wondering if there is a video on how to use this tool correctly... the section but just lets you see your solution but i don't get the cut stair tool
It's just like drawing a standard stair run.

I didn't say it was too low, although it could be too low.
what elevation do you typically recommend cutting it at?
Cut must be above all landings for lower level doors.
also the railings along that cut stair... which level do i draw those on? 1 or 2?
Rails go with treads on both levels. Stop at cut line.

Real practice is a little more obvious, but for the exam, should you do it between the first and 2nd landing and some between the 2nd and third landing. If its a switchback, its more obvious. thanks
