How to Frame Stairs Squeak Free Stairs

Stairs get a lot of use in a home, and I feel like its good to over build them some.  This stair could easily get away with 3 stringers, but 4 places the middle two at about the walk line.  2x8 tread is overkill but it drastically stiffens the stair and provides a better connection to the tread.  All of this reduces deflection which prevents squeaks.  

Gluing the treads and risers further helps the assembly to act as a unit, not as just individual pieces. The Strong-Tie SDWS 5" timber screws lock the assembly into the wall much more tightly than nails and won't loosen over time.
