In the world of architectural design and structural engineering, staircases are often the most complex components of a building to detail. Among the various structural supports, the stands out as a gold standard for durability and load distribution. While single stringer (mono-stringer) or closed stringer designs have their place, the double stringer configuration—featuring two inclined beams supporting the treads from below or the sides—offers an unparalleled balance of strength, material efficiency, and design flexibility. Among the various structural supports, the stands out
Structural members usually made from steel channels (C-channels), rectangular hollow sections (RHS), or plate steel. They can be placed directly under the edges of the treads (outer stringers) or tucked slightly inboard for a floating effect (under-slung stringers).
