Introduction : The staircase is an important component of a building, and often the only means of access between the various floors in the building. It consists of a flight of steps, usually with one or more intermediate landings (horizontal slab platforms) provided between the floor levels.
Component of staircase :
Component of staircase : Flight : The inclined slab of staircase is called flight. Landing : It is level platform at the top or bottom of a flight between floor. Riser : Vertical projection of the step (i.e., the vertical distance between two neighbouring steps) is called Riser. Tread : The horizontal top portion of a step (where the foot rests) is termed Tread. Nosing : It is the projecting part of the tread beyond the face of riser.
Component of staircase : Waist slab : The slab below steps in the stair case is called waist slab. Soffit : Underside of a stair is known as soffit. Going : The horizontal projection (plan) of an inclined flight of steps, between the first and last risers, is termed going. The steps in the flight can be designed in a number of ways: with waist slab, with tread-riser arrangement (without waist slab) or with isolated tread slab.

Type of staircase : A wide variety of staircases are met with in practice. Some of the more common geometrical configurations are : • straight stairs (with or without intermediate landing) • quarter-turn stairs • dog-legged stairs • open well stairs • spiral stairs • helicoidal stairs
Type of staircase :
Structural Classification : Structurally, staircases may be classified largely into two categories, depending on the predominant direction in which the slab component of the stair undergoes flexure: 1. stair slab spanning transversely (stair widthwise); 2. stair slab spanning longitudinally (along the incline).
Stair slab spanning transversely : This category generally includes: 1. slab cantilevered from a spandrel beam or wall ; 2. slab doubly cantilevered from a central spine beam ; 3. slab supported between two stringer beams or walls.

Stair slab spanning transversely :
Stair slab spanning transversely : When the slab is supported at the two sides by means of ‘stringer beams’ or masonry walls , it may be designed as simply supported, but reinforcement at the top should be provided near the supports to resist the ‘negative’ moments that may arise on account of possible partial fixity. In the case of the cantilevered slabs , it is economical to provide isolated treads (without risers). However, the tread-riser type of arrangement and the waist slab type are also sometimes employed in practice, as cantilevers. The spandrel beam is subjected to torsion (‘equilibrium torsion’), in addition to flexure and shear. The slab supports gravity loads by bending essentially in a transverse vertical plane, with the span along the width of the stair.
Stair slab spanning transversely : When the slab is doubly cantilevered from a central (spine) beam, it is essential to ensure, by proper detailing, that the slab does not separate from the beam when loaded on one side only. This can be done by anchoring the slab reinforcement into the beam, so that the same reinforcement acts as a stirrup in the beam. Alternative arrangements are possible; however, it should be ensured that the beam stirrups are ‘closed’, to provide desired torsional resistance.
Stair slab spanning transversely : It may be noted that, although the stair slab spans Transversel , the supporting spandrel/spine/stringer beams span Longitudinally along the incline of the stair, framing into supporting columns.
Stair slab spanning longitudinally : In this case, the supports to the stair slab are provided parallel to the riser at two or more locations, causing the slab to bend longitudinally between the supports.

Effective span of stair : Another case frequently encountered in residential and office buildings is that of the landings supported on three sides. This case has not been explicitly covered by the IS Code. The ACI Code and BS Code also do not have any special provision as yet for this condition. However, recent studies (based on experiments as well as finite element analysis) reveal that the flight essentially spans between the landing-going junctions, with hogging moments developing at these junctions.
Load on stair slab : Stair slabs are usually designed to resist gravity loads, comprising Dead and Live load. In the case of cantilevered tread slabs, the effects of seismic loads should also be investigated. The vertical vibrations induced by earthquakes may induce flexural stresses of considerable magnitude. It is desirable to provide bottom steel in the cantilever slabs (near the support locations) to counter the possibility of reversal of stresses.
Dead Load : The components of the dead load to be considered comprise: • self-weight of stair slab (tread/tread-riser slab/waist slab); • self-weight of step (in case of ‘waist slab’ type stairs); • self-weight of tread finish (usually 0.5 – 1.0 kN /m 2 ). The unit weight of reinforced concrete for the slab and step may be taken as 25kN/m 3 as specified in the Code (Cl. 19.2.1).
Dead Load : Live loads are generally assumed to act as uniformly distributed loads on the horizontal projection of the flight, i.e., on the ‘going’. The Loading Code [IS 875 : 1987 (Part II)] recommends,
Distribution of Load : IS 456 : 2000 Cl. 33.2 , Pg. No 63
Distribution of Load : IS 456 : 2000 Cl. 33.2 , Pg. No 63
Waist Slab Spanning Longitudinally : Slab thickness t may be taken as approximately l /20 for simply supported end conditions and l /25 for continuous end conditions. The normal load component w n causes flexure in vertical planes containing the span direction (parallel to the longitudinal axis of the slab), and the tangential load component w t causes axial compression (of low order) in the slab. The main bars are placed longitudinally, and designed for the bending moments induced in the vertical planes along the slab span. The distributor bars are provided in the transverse directions. These moments may be conveniently computed by considering the entire vertical load w acting on the projected horizontal span (going), rather than considering the normal load component w n acting on the inclined span s
