4. Estimation of dead weight
The dead weight of stair consists of (i) dead weight of waist
slab and (ü) dead
weight of steps.
) Dead weighi of waist slab
The dead weight w', per unit area, is first calculated at right
angles to the slope. The corresponding load per unit horizontal area
is then obtained by
increasing w by the ratio VR? +T'/T where
R= rise and
T = tread. Thus, if t thickness of waist in mm,

PROBLEMS
1. Design the stairs for a public building, supported on wall on one side
and stringer beam on the other side. The horizontal span of stairs if 1.4
m. The risers are 120 mm and tread are 300 mm. Use
M 15 mix and
Fe 415 steel.
2. Design a suitable dog-legged stair in a public building, to be located in
a staircase 6 metre long, 3.2 m wIde and 3.7 m high, with a door of
1.1 m wide in each of the longitudinal wals. The doors face each other
and are located with their centre at a distance of 0.9 metres from the
resnective corners of the staircase. Use M 15 mix and Fe 415
steel
3. A two storeyed building is to have a R.C. starcase from ground floor
to first floor roof. The size ot the staircase is 4.3 m x 4.3 m and there
is one door opening in ne wal ana a window opening on the opposite
wall. Design the staircase, giving the detais of formation, R.C. slab arrangement
of building, risers and treads witn their top finishing with suitabie sketch.
The width of stair is 1.2 m and height t each storey is 3.4 m. Use
M 20 mix and Fe 415 steel.
