How do I design the Stair Case Slab?
Answer:
There is no special treatment for Stair
Case Slabs. A stair case slab shall be marked
as an ordinary ONE WAY slab, spanning along the
flight of stair case. A single slab may be defined
common for both flights. The slab shall be marked
SUNK. This will make it discontinuous with adjacent
slabs.
Thickness
of the slab shall be given as Waist Thickness
of Stair Case. The weight of the steps shall be
added in Super Imposed Dead Load. Live Load on
this Slab shall be given appropriately.
Usually
SuperImposed Dead Load value will be 0.4 T/mt2
and SuperImposed Live Load value will be 0.5 T/mt2
