👉Staircase Rules & Formulas 👇

🚧1. Number of steps = Height of Floor (H) ÷ Rise (R)

🚧2. Tread width (T) = Total Length of Staircase (L) ÷ Number of Steps (N)

🚧3. Slope of staircase = tan⁻¹ ( Rise (R) ÷ Tread (T) )

🚧4. Landing Length = 1.2 m to 1.5 m

🚧5. Headroom clearance = Minimum 2.1 m

🚧6. Staircase width = 1.0 m to 1.5 m Sure

🚧7. Step Proportion Rule (Thumb Rule)
2 × Rise (R) + Tread (T) ≈ 550 mm to 700 mm

🚧8. Comfort Formula

⏺Rise (R) × Tread (T) ≈ 40000 to 42000 mm²

🚧9. Staircase Angle (θ)

⏺25° ≤ θ ≤ 40°

🚧10. Flight Height

⏺Flight Height = Number of Steps (N) × Rise (R)

🚧11. Total Run (Horizontal Length)

⏺Total Run = Number of Treads (T) × Tread width

🚧12. Width of Landing

⏺Landing Width ≥ Stair Width

🚧13. Maximum Riser Height

⏺R ≤ 190 mm (residential)
⏺R ≤ 150 mm (public buildings)

🚧14. Minimum Tread Width

⏺T ≥ 250 mm (residential)
⏺T ≥ 300 mm (public buildings)

🚧15. Step Proportion (Blondel’s Rule)

⏺2R + T ≈ 600 mm to 650 mm

🚧16. Maximum Flight (Steps in One Flight)

⏺≤ 12 steps (comfortable)
⏺≤ 16 steps (maximum)

🚧17. Minimum Width of Stairs

⏺Residential = 900 mm to 1000 mm
⏺Public = ≥ 1500 mm

🚧18. Handrail Height

⏺850 mm to 900 mm (from tread nosing)

🚧19. Headroom Clearance

⏺≥ 2100 mm (2.1 m)

🚧20. Landing Width Rule

⏺Landing Width ≥ Stair Width

🚧21. Preferred Staircase Angle

⏺25° – 35° (most comfortable)
40° (maximum)

🚧22. Spiral Stairs

⏺Minimum Tread at Centre = 150 mm
⏺Minimum Width of Step = 250 mm
