Hypertufa steps

Hyperboy
18 years ago

I need to construct a stairway from my basement door to the backyard entrance. The rise is 4'8" and the run is 29'.

I have a lot of leeway in the number and dimensions of each tread, but I'm leaning toward 20 treads, each about 15" deep.

Now to my question: is it possible to cast fairly large hypertufa slabs to use as stairway treads? These will obviously see foot traffic, so my recipe would be cement-rich to make it durable. Is this doable?
