Designing the stair with fixed supports. Consider a 1m wide stair

including landings,
Inclined stair length = = 3.567m
Total length = 1.40 + 4.738 + 2.85 = 6.87m

Design information
Steel strength (fy) 500N/mm2
Concrete grade (fcu) fck = 20N/mm2, fck, cube = 25N/mm2,
Concrete cover 25mm
Density of concrete (γ) 25KN/m3
Weight of steps 25KN/m3 x 0.150 x 0.5 = 1.875KN/m2

Loading, assuming a waist of 250mm

EC 1, 2001 Self weight of waist = 25 x 0.225 5.625KN/m2
Table 6.2, Other dead loads , assume 1.5KN/m2 1.50KN/m2
Pag 22 Add weight of steps (150mm risers) 1.875KN/m2
Finishes (density of 23.6KN/m3) 0.60KN/m2
Plaster, ceiling and services 0.60KN/m2
Total dead load (Gk) 10.20KN/m2
Imposed load on stairs (Qk) 4.0KN/m2

Design load, n = 1.35Gk + 1.5Qk = 21.40KN/m2 n = 19.77KN/m2

Designing for support moment

K= = 0.0429 ˂ 0.167 thus singly reinforced

Z =d = 0.9661d > 0.95d thus Z = 0.95d

As = = 1016mm2/m
Provide:
Provide H16 – 150c/c (As = 1340mm /m) 2 H16-150c/c top

Designing for span moment

K= = 0.057 ˂ 0.167 thus singly reinforced

Z=d = 0.947d ˂ 0.95d thus Z = 0.949d

As = = = 491mm2/m

2. Span-effective depth ratio

How to design At the centre of the span
to EC2, 2006,
Table 4, Steel ratio, ρ = = 0.0026 or 0.26%
Page 11
Table 7, pg 29 For grade 25 concrete (fck, cube = 25MPa, fck = 20MPa),

Basic span effective depth ratio for C30 concrete = 20.4, k = 1.3
for an end span condition.

Thus Modified span-depth ratio =

= 44.92

Actual span- effective depth ratio = L/d =6817/189= 36.07

Thus Modified span-depth ratio = 44.92 > actual span - effective

Deflection ok
