“Staircase is a design to bridge a large vertical
distance by dividing into smaller vertical
distances called steps.”
1.Steps :
It is a portion of stair which permits ascent and descent.

2.Tread :
It is the upper horizontal portion of step upon which the feet is placed.

3. Riser :
The vertical portion between each tread on the stair.

4. Handrail:
A handrail is a rail that is designed to be griped by the hand so as to provide
stability and support.

5. Bluster :
It is a vertical member of wood or metal supporting the handrail.
6. Newel Post :
This is the vertical member which is placed at the ends of flights to
connect handrail.

7. Run :
It is the total length of stair in a horizontal plane including landings.

8.Nosing :
It is the projecting part of the thread beyond the face of the riser.
It is rounded to give good architectural effect.

9.String or Stingers :
These are the sloping wooden member which support the
step in a stair.
They run along the slope of the stair.

There are the stairs along
which there is no change in
direction on any flight.

It is used where staircase hall

is long and narrow.
There are the stairs
along which there is no
change in direction on
any flight but they
having a landing after
several steps.
A stair turning through one
right angle is known as L
shaped stairs.

The change in direction can

be affected by introducing an
landing.
A Stair turning through one
right angle and the change in
direction can be affected by
providing a winder .
When viewed from top
it appears to follow a
circle with a single centre
of curvature.

The Spiral stair are

providing where space
available is limited and
traffic is low.
A curved stair as any
stair that a helical or
spiral geometry, but does
not have a central pole.

A Curves stair can have a

very tight inner radius, as
small as just a few inches
A staircase is an important provision in any
building. It is not only used for normal
movement of person, furniture, etc.
Between floors, but is also a mean of
moving out to safety during fire or any such
