Staircases

Staircases appear in a number of forms and behave in different ways, as shown in the following figures: simply supported (pinned on both sides, fixed on one side, fixed on both sides), cantile-ver, winder, helical, etc. The following paragraphs examine the reinforcement of the most com-monly met staircases which are the orthogonal and the winder stairs.
