The width of the stair
• 0.8 m to 1 m for residential building and
• 1.8 m to 2 m for public building.
Guide lines for fixing the dimensionsGuide lines for fixing the dimensions Contd…Contd…
• The width of the landing is equal to the width of stairs.
• The number of steps in each flight should not be greater
than 12
• The pitch of the stair should not be more than 38 degrees.
• The head room measured vertically above any step or
below the mid landing shall not be less than 2.1 m.
Design of stairsDesign of stairs
Design for maximum bending moment and check for
maximum shear force.
The depth is to be fixed from deflection criteria.
Stair case slab is designed as a conventional slab.
All rules regarding the detailing are similar to that of slab.
Enough development and anchorage lengths for steel
should be provided.

ExerciseExercise
A dog legged stair case is to be detailed with the
following particulars:
Clear dimension of stair case room=4.48 m x 2.1 m
The floor to floor height is 3.2 m
Width of each tread =250 mm
Width of each rise = 160 mm
Thickness of waist slab = 150 mm
Width of flight =1m
All round wall = 230 mm
ExerciseExercise contd.,contd.,
Both flights are supported at the ends of
landing on 230 mm wall.
(Landing and flight spans in the same direction)
The first flight starts from the plinth level
Main steel for each flight = #12@120
Distribution steel for each flight = #8@ 200
Use M20 concrete and Fe 415 steel.
Draw to a suitable scale
The plan of stair case
Sectional elevation of the Ground flight
Sectional elevation of the First flight
Bar bending schedule
SolutionSolution
Dimensioning:
R=160 mm, T= 250 mm
Floor to floor height = 3200mm
No of rises = 3200/R = 20. Each flight has 10 rises.
No of treads per flight=10-1 =9
Width of landing along flight
= (4480-9x250)/2 = 1115mm.
Going of flight=9x250 =2250mm
Development length = 47φ= 47 x 12 = 564 mm
