. A STAIR LANDING

NEWEL POST Surface Anchored 2 Alternatives The advantage of the skirt over the housed stringer (see 217B) is the ease of construction. A disadvantage is the potential for minor opening of butt joints at the ends of treads and risers due to minor movement of the structure. A more involved hybrid strategy that limits this […]

Interior and exterior stairs

The basic structure of the stair depends primarily on whether the stairway is to be located inside or outside and whether it is to be protected from the weather or not. The wood-stair details discussed in this chapter can be employed for either interior or exterior stair­ways, although the location will suggest basic detailing differences […]

Structure

Stairs may be classified into two basic structural types: continuously supported and freespanning. Continuously supported stairs—Continuously supported stairs are commonly used as interior stairs. Both sides of the stairway are supported by wall framing, so calculations of spanning capacities are not necessary. These stairs are site-built in some regions, but are predominantly prefabricated in others. […]

Stair configuration

The shape or configuration of a stairway is determined primarily by the circulation patterns of a building and by available space. Virtually any configuration of stairway may be constructed using the standard details of this chapter by merely breaking the stairway into smaller pieces and reassembling them. Several typical configurations that are worthy of note […]

Stair

S tairs do not really support or protect a building in the same way as foundations, floors, walls, and roofs, but this book would be incomplete without them. Stairs are the vertical connectors of the parts of the building. Most buildings require a few steps just to enter the main floor, and stairs connect any […]
