DESIGN OF STAIRCASE

Riser of staircase, R = 150 mm

Tread of staircase, T = 300 mm
Width of staircase = 1200 mm
Width of landing (clear) = 1000 mm
Assume thickness of waist slab = 150 mm
Clear cover to reinforcement = 20 mm
fck 20 N/mm2
fy 500 N/mm2
Loads
Live load acting on the staircase = 3 kN/m2
Load due to finishes (50mm thick) = 0.05x24 = 1.2 kN/m2
Inclined length of each step = b = R2+T2 335.41 mm
Load on Waist slab
Self weight of concrete step = 0.5x150/1000x25 = 1.88 kN/m2
Self weight of waist slab = 0.15x25x335.41/300= 4.19 kN/m2
Load due to finishes = 1.2 kN/m2
Total dead load acting = 7.27 kN/m2
Total live load acting = 3 kN/m2
Total load on waist slab = 10.27 kN/m2

Loads acting on landing

self weight of slab = 0.15x25 = 3.75 kN/m2
load due to finishes = 1.2 kN/m2
Total dead load acting on the landing = 4.95 kN/m2
Live load = 3 kN/m2
Total load on landing 7.95 kN/m2
