Free Standing Stair Design
Free Standing Stair Design
We intend to apply all gravity loads purely in the global y-direction, therefore we convert the load at the w

Load on flight(nf)= 17.69775 KN/m2
Load on landing(nl)= 16.0575 KN/m2
Thickness of flight (hf)= 250 mm
Thickness of landing(hl)= 250 mm

onvert the load at the waist of the stair from local to global direction by considering the angle of inclination of the flight area
alculating the critical design moments for free standing stairs with the flights fully fixed is given below;
clination of the flight area to the horizontal;
1 Given data
Tread = 300 mm
Riser 150 mm
Width of stairs = 1500 mm
Width of mid landing = 1500 mm
Length of mid landing= 3500 mm
Horizontal length of going = 3300 mm
waist slab thickness = 200 mm
Landing slab thickness = 250 mm
Unit weight of concrete = 2549 Kg/m3
2 Load calculation
Total dead load of flight = 3544 kg
Live load = 500 Kg/m2
Total live load on flight = 2475 Kg
Total load = 6019 Kg
