Precast concrete step
- Square or stooled end built into wall
- Support wall
- Cantilever step
- Precast concrete cantilever steps built into wall forming stairs
- Delivery of precast concrete stairs should be arranged so that they can be lifted , positioned and fixed direct from the delivery vehicle , thus avoiding double handling .
- Precast components are usually designed for 2 conditions :-
- Lifting and transporting
- Final fixed condition
- Flights are lifted from the correct lifting points , which may be in the form of loops or hooks projecting from or recessed into the concrete member .
- TO avoid damage due to unacceptable stresses during lifting .
- Balustrade and handrail requirements , and the various methods of fixing , are as described for in-situ RC stairs .
- ANy tread finish that is acceptable for an in-situ RC stair will also be suitable for the precast concrete stair .
