R.C.C. STAIR CASE
Concrete grade : usually used M15 (1:2:4) /20 mm aggregate.
Cover : minimum cover to reinforcement 15mm.
Mild steel or tor steel reinforcement used.
R.C.C STAIR CASE
ADVANTAGES OF R.C.C. STAIR CASE
Easy to construct into any geometrical shape.
More durable , fire resistant and less noisy
Require comparatively thin sections.
Easy to wash and clean so provide better sanitation.
They can be built of any complicated design.

REINFORCEMENT DETAIL
DOUBLE FLIGHT STAIRCASE

Behavior of double flight stairs has been
investigated for various supporting
arrangements. For convenience, the analytical
results have been presented for a selected portion
of staircase consisting of mid-landing, waist slab
and floor landing which represents the general
behavior
For each support conditions a landing width of
1.5m has been selected.

Definition : A cantilever staircase has one end of tread or going
fixed and has other end free or it can be supported from centre
with both ends free. It is made of various materials like wood,
glass, r.c.c, fiber sheets or metal.
Cantilever staircase supported on
spine beam
Cantilever staircase supported by
wall
Cantilever staircase supported by wall.

This type of staircase has its tread supported by wall on
one side and has a free end on the other side .
Main reinforcement runs in the transverse direction at
the top side of the steps, while shrinkage reinforcement
runs at the bottom side of the slab in the transverse and
longitudinal directions.
To hold the top reinforcement in position of 6 mm
stirrups are used every 20 to 25 cm.
The main reinforcement is anchored in the wall
whereas the shrinkage reinforcement is extended in the
wall .
