DESIGN OF STARICASE

1 Design Constants
Grade of Concrete= 20 Mpa
Grade of Rebar= 500 Mpa
Ru= 2.66

2 Dimensions
Tread= 250 mm
Riser= 175 mm
Landing= 1.43 m
Main Bar dia= 12 mm
Distribution Bar dia= 8 mm
Width= 0.9525 m
Thickness of Slab= 125 mm
Spacing of Main Bar= 150 mm
Spacing of Distribution Bar= 150 mm

For First Flight

Effective Span= 3.3528 m

3 Loading
a) For the flight portion: Let the waist slab and landing slab be of
Thickness= 125 mm
Consider a strip of 1m wide
Weight of slab on slope= 3125 N/m2
Weight on horizontal area= 3814.55 N/m2
Dead weight of steps= 2187.5 N
Weight of Finishing= 100 N
Live Load= 3000 N/m2
Total Load= 9102.05 N/m
Total Factored Load= 13653.1 N/m

b) For the landing portion:

Dead load= 3125 N/m2
Live Load= 3000 N/m2
Weight of Finishing= 100 N
Total Load= 6225 N/m
Total Factored Load= 9337.5 N/m
 However, since quarter space landing is common to both flight,
only half of the above loading will be taken.
i.e. 4668.75 N/m

4 Design of First Flight:

Reaction at ends
Re= 10040.42967 N
Mmax= 9998710.232
= 9.998710232 N-mm
Then,
d= 61.30997978 mm
D= 77 mm
Hoever Take D= 125 mm OK

Ast= 244.9733168 mm2 Taking,

Cover to centroid=25mm
Using,
Bar dia= 12 mm
Spacing= 461.6720588 mm

In width of 0.9525 m
No. of bars= 3
Actual Spacing= 317.5 mm OK
Provide 12mm dia bars @ 150mm c/c

5 Distribution Reinforcements
Minimum Reinforcement= 150 mm2
Using,
Bar dia= 8 mm
Spacing= 335.1032164 mm OK

Provide 8mm dia bars @ 150mm c/c
