Step-by-step guidelines on concrete staircase reinforcement

This construction video is based on the reinforcement and setting up shutter as well as electrical process for developing a concrete staircase prior to concrete casting.

RCC structure is built up with various building elements like Footings, Columns, Beams, Slabs, Staircase etc.

These elements are reinforced with steel to provide strength to the structure. Staircase is one of the vital elements in a RCC structure.

While constructing concrete stairs, one has to utilize the proper mix of concrete and set up an exact amount and structure of reinforcing bars. In this way, the stairs will provide support to withstand the weight and will resist for many years in a row.

Besides, it is necessary to maintain the standard dimensions for stairs treads and risers of a concrete stair. Subsequently, the tread should remain among 9” and 9 1/4” and the riser should become approximately 7 1/2” – 8 1/4” (minimum 5”).
