Cantilever Steel Stairs
Cantilever Steel Stairs
(OP)
Can anyone please direct me to a design guide for cantilever stairs in steel? I'm looking at one at the moment and any help on this topic will be appreciated.
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

The stair has no support at mid landing and are only supported at structural floor level i.e stringers are cantilevered off the floors!

A 3D model should be sufficient for you to determine stresses, rotations and deflections. In addition to 100% loading on both flights, I also recommend using full loading a one flight with zero on the other to look at maximum torsion.

StructIET - yes you are right, it is a scissors stairs, I'm based in Eire. The stair is cantilevers off link bridges between two blocks and is a feature in the atrium space.
Done a similar design with a solid concrete stair and followed guidance in Reynold's Concrete Designer's Manual.

That is such a brilliant book! 10th edition should be in every engineer's library

Certainly the printing quality of the 11th edition is poor.

namely:
1. a lot of good charts are no longer in there (two way plate/cantilever wall charts)
2. a lot of the charts are hardly legible!! it's as though they photocopied the charts.
a poor update.
