Design of Dog Legged Staircase Problem 1) Design of a dog legged staircase (Fig1) with the following properties. a) b) c) d) e) f)
fy = 415Mpa , fck= M20 Height between floors = 9’-0”(2.74m) Riser = 6.35”(160mm) Tread = 11”(280mm) Live Load = 3.0KN/m2 Finish Load = 1KN/m2
Solution: Assume
( dL )=20
d=
(for slab), hence
Thickness of waist slab (W) =
hence d ( new )=146−15−
m =124.25 mm 125 mm ( 2.485 20 )
( 122 )=146 mm 150 mm
125+15+
,
( 122 )129 mm 130 mm
1. Calculation of Dead Load(load per meter width) B2 =R2+T2, Given R=160mm and T=280mm B= (1602+2802)1/2=322.5mm Steps =
0.5 ( 0.160 x 0.280 ) =0.0224 m 2
Waist slab= ( 0.322 x 0.150 ¿=0.0483 m2 Total Area = 0.0707m2 DL of step section, 1m in width and 280mm in plan length = DL per m2 on plan =
1.77 x
0.0707 x 25 KN =1.77 KN / m m3
=6.321 KN /m 2 ( 1000 280 )
Finish load = 1KN/m2 Total DL = (6.321+1)KN/m2=7.321KN/m2 LL per m2 = 3.5KN/m2 Total Load =
1.5 ( ¿+ DL ) =1.5 ( 7.321+3.5 ) =16.23KN/m2
2. Calculation of Bending Moment Calculate BM (Mu) using = (wl2/8) or use STAAD pro, Mu=13.1Kn/m2 Mu=0.138fckbd2, Hence
d=√(
Mu ) 70 mm<130 ( provided ) Hence OK 0.138 fckbd 2 =
3. Area of Steel
( x )(1−0.416 ( dx ))
Mu= 0.36 fck d
Dividing by
We get
∴
( 0.36 ) x {0.416
