How to build sturdy steps from deck?

Hi all,

 

Well, as I mentioned, I'd like to try my hand at creating some steps from our deck to the ground, and I have no idea where to start. Below are some spec's, please tell me if any other measurements would help. 

 

Slope is ~10º

1770mm wide from outside left of left post to outside right of right hand post

940mm high middle of right post, from top of decking board to ground

800mm high middle of left post, from top of decking board to ground

 

I love everything to be over-engineered. I'd like the steps to be roomy and sturdy. 

Thank you :smile:

Hello @Noyade 

Thank you for the extra method to consider, and I love the 'book' placement 😂
