The Metal Stairs are a staircase welded from steel rods and small steel sheets. They give access to a higher floor or a roof at a base.
They belong to Welding and come in a single version. The in-game tooltip says they go up, they go down, and zombies do too. They are the welder's answer to the Wooden Stairs and the Log Stairs. They suit a metal base or an outpost where a welder does most of the building. A carpenter can build Log Stairs earlier with logs and bindings.
How to Build Metal Stairs
This recipe must be learned first. The magazine Welder Monthly - June 1993 teaches it. The Welder occupation knows it from the start. It asks for Welding level 5 and gives 50 Welding XP.
It takes four Steel Rod and six Steel Sheet - Small. A Welding Torch and Welding Rods join the parts. Both are drawn down by the build.
Once built, the stairs have 150 health. Each point of the builder's skill adds 50 more. A high Welding level leaves a much sturdier staircase.
The Metal Stairs recipe builds the Metal Stairs. It needs Welding level 5. Building it gives 50 Welding XP. The recipe has to be learned first.

How to Use Metal Stairs
The stairs connect the ground to a floor above. They are built as one complete unit.
Zombies can climb stairs, as the tooltip warns. A raised floor reached by stairs is still open to them.
Plan the spot before building. Leave room at the top and the bottom for a floor tile.
Notes
- The tooltip says zombies can use them too.
- Learn them from Welder Monthly - June 1993.
- Each skill point adds 50 health.
- Log Stairs and Wooden Stairs are the wooden versions.
