Reinforced Concrete Design 1 Design of Staircase

This document provides an overview of staircase design by Dr. Sharifah Maszura Syed Mohsin. It defines key terms related to staircase design, describes the types of staircases as either transversely or longitudinally supported, and outlines the design considerations and process for reinforced concrete staircases including loads, bending moments, shear forces, and effective spans. The document aims to identify the type of staircase and define the loading arrangement and analysis method for designing a typical reinforced concrete staircase.

Lesson Outcome

• Identify the type of staircase


• Define and explain loading arrangement and method
of analysis
• Define and calculate load distribution of analysis of
staircase
• Design typical staircase

Introduction

• Stairs are essential part of every building since they


lead from one floor to another and connect different
levels.
• It consists of a flight of steps, usually with one or
more intermediate landings provided between the
floor levels.
• The dimension of the stair should give maximum
comfort to the users, which depends to the use of
the building; e.g. public buildings –riser ≤ 180 mm,
private buildings – riser ≤ 200 mm.

Stairs terminology

Design of Staircase

• The reinforced concrete stairs should be


designed similar to reinforced concrete slabs,
otherwise stated.

• Considerations in staircase design:


1. Loads
2. Bending moments and shear forces
3. Effective spans

Type of Stairs

Transversely supported (Transverse to the


direction of movement)

• Transversely supported stairs include:


a) Simply supported steps supported by two walls
or beams or a combination of both.
b) Steps cantilevering from a wall or beam.
c) Stairs cantilevering from a central spine beam.

Type of Stairs

Longitudinally supported (in the direction of movement)

• These type of stairs span between supports at the top and


bottom of flight an unsupported at the sides. Longitudinally
supported stairs may be supported in any of the following
manners:-
a) Beams or walls at the outside edges of the landings.
b) Internal beams at the ends of the flight in addition to beams
or walls at the outside edges of the landings.
c) Landings which are supported by beams or walls running in
the longitudinal direction.
d) A combination of (a) or (b) and (c).
e) Stairs with quarter landings associated with open-well stairs.
