    The document discusses the structural design of a transverse staircase shown in Figure Q1(a). It asks the examinee to propose a suitable structural system given fixed column positions and no additional columns are allowed. It then shows a longitudinal staircase in Figure Q1(b) and provides relevant data such as material properties, loadings, and dimensions. The examinee is asked to sketch possible load arrangements, analyze the staircase under maximum loading, design the main reinforcements, check deflection of the landing, and provide structural detailing.

    Q1

    (a)

    Discuss the principle of structural design for transverse spanning staircase. (3 marks) Propose a suitable structural system for the staircase shown in Figure Q1(a). The columns position was fixed and no additional column is allowed. (3 marks) Figure Q1(b) shows the longitudinal spanning staircase and its cross section. Given the following data: Going = 250 mm Riser = 175 mm Waist = 130 mm Characteristics strength of concrete = 30 N/mm2 Characteristics strength of steel = 250 N/mm2 Concrete cover = 20 mm Finishing = 1.0 kN/m2 Imposed load = 4.5 kN/m2 Assuming diameter of main reinforcement = 12 mm (i) Sketch Three (3) possibilities of loads arrangement on the staircase. (6 marks) Analyse the staircase by assuming that it is subjected to maximum load (1.4Gk + 1.6Qk) for the staircase and landing. (5 marks) Design the main reinforcements. (5 marks) (iv) Check the deflection for landing. (4 marks) (v) Provide the detailing. (4 marks)
