Thinking of moving the stairs to new location as they were taken out to fix the support beam and the stress from improper supporting and framing of their headroom and landing. Id like to move them to a closet area by the front door. But in doing so would be interupting 5'-7' at the foundation wall. Im wanting to not have a landing at the top of the stairs to keep the amount of room thats gonna be taken for the headroom. Any advice on framing for proper support to achieve this?

Best bet is to hire an architect or an engineer to look at it and design it for you.
