Damaged 3 x 12 Stair Tread

 
 

In the picture above a 3 x 12 stair tread is damaged from walking up and down the stairs and mother nature. The extremes of dry and wet hot and cold will cause wood to shrink and expand which in turn will loosen the connection between the metal and wood. This is very common for this type of outdoor stairs. You will also see this type of stairs with concrete treads.
