- Press u to select "Downward Stairway".
- Move the cursor to a position on or near a wall and press enter.

+indicating where the area you wish to start carving stairs. - Move the cursor to any position across the area you wish to carve down stairs and then press enter again. This area must be a non-built wall. Any area of floor or construction will not be selected. Usually, this is just a single tile.
- The wall tiles in the area you defined should blink similar to mining.
- Wait for a dwarf to do the job. You will need to designate/build an up stair for each downward stairway.
