What is a stone staircase?
Stone suspended stairs are stone stairs that appear to be suspended and have no support. In order to make the staircase appear floating, they usually minimize the headstone, side stones and other stair connections. Suspending the appearance of the stairs is done in different ways, but the common feature of all of them is the separate visual effect of each of the stairs. Suspended stairs are mostly used in modern and minimalist interior design stones. This type of stairs has a very simple appearance and may even be ordered without a fence. Most of the time, manufacturers suggest the use of a fence, even in the form of glass, to protect children and the elderly.
Types
The suspended staircase has different types in terms of gender; including wooden, concrete, glass and stone hanging stairs. In this section, we want to discuss the types of floating stairs that are made of stone. As we mentioned earlier, suspended stairs are made with different methods and different safety factors. The less connection a staircase can show, the more it will convey the feeling of suspension to the viewer than other models. Sometimes the methods used are according to the customer's taste and order; But in any case, the engineering group should decide which method they want to use for the design of the suspended staircase according to the type of stairs and the conditions of the place where the stairs are built. In the following, we discuss the types of these items:
🔰 one-way connection of suspended stairs to the bearing wall
🔰 two-way connection of suspended stairs to the wall
🔰 suspended stairs with steel frame
🔰 suspended stairs with one central column
🔰 suspended stairs with two Central column
🔰 Other suspended staircase models
One -way attachment of the staircase suspended to the bearing wall
If your staircase is going to be placed next to a load-bearing wall or a structure, among the types of suspended staircase models, we recommend this model. In this way, round bars are created from inside the structural wall and strengthened with main bars. These bars come out from inside the wall and are prepared for placement and construction of stairs.
For this, first, it is necessary to prepare a concrete form and prepare the work area. Now the stone box is installed as the exterior of the stairs. These stairs seem to float despite their high strength.
Bilaterally connected the staircase to the wall
If there are walls on both sides of the staircase construction site and the customer orders a modern staircase such as suspended stairs, the work is very simple. Among the types of suspended staircase models, this method is very similar to the previous method. In this way, metal bars can be placed between two walls and by strengthening and fixing with concrete, stone hanging stairs can be created on it.
Steel frame stairs
When some companies want to build floating stairs next to the wall, they use ready-made models. Pay attention that in this method there must be one side of the wall. To do this, stainless steel frames for each number of steps are installed in the wall with a precise fit. These concrete frames go inside the wall and are fixed well. They create a part outside the wall which is connected with the help of metal sheet, anchor bolt and steel spacer. After the strength of the work, the stone facade completely and three-dimensionally covers all parts of the infrastructure.
Staircase with a central column
Among the types of suspended staircase models, the suspended stairs that have a central column induce a less suspended feeling but are highly efficient. Sometimes you want to have your metal suspended staircase in the middle of the structure or away from the wall; In such cases, it is necessary to place the total weight of the work on one column.
