Reinforced Concrete Stairs

  • May be constructed in-situ or precast in sections ready for immediate installation and use when delivered to site . 
  • THe general use of cranes on building sites has meant that many of the large flight arrangements , which in the past would have been cast in-situ , can now be precast under factory-controlled conditions . 
  • A reinforced concrete (RC) stair has better fire resistance than conventional timber staircases . 
  • RC stair are non-combustible , strong and hard wearing . 
  • Many variations of plan layout and spanning direction are possible .
