    Stair treads - guidance for industrial use


    Load criteria and requirements of stair treads - Industrial
    BS EN ISO 14122-3: "Safety of machinery - Permanent means of access to
    machinery - Part 3: Stairways, ladders and balustrades", states concerning

    stair treads:
    4

    General safety requirements concerning materials and dimensions

    4.1

    The materials and dimensions of constituent elements and


    construction mode used shall meet the safety objectives of this
    standard

    4.2

    The materials used shall be, themselves, by their nature or by a


    complementary treatment, able to resist corrosion provoked by the
    surrounding atmosphere.

    Partial coefficients
    (Safety)
    Safety on load: 1.6
    Permissible deformation
    Span / 300 or 6mm whichever
    the lesser

    Any parts liable to be in contact with the users shall be designed so


    as not to hurt or hinder (sharp corners, welds with burrs, rough
    edges, etc.).

    4.4

    Steps and landings shall offer satisfactory slip resistance to avoid


    any risk of slipping.

    4.7

    The structure and the steps shall be designed to satisfactorily resist


    the intended imposed loads.

    4.7.1 For the structure the unfactored loads used in the industrial field,
    may vary from 1,5 kN/m2 for low density pedestrian traffic without
    load, up to 5 kN/m2 for low density pedestrian traffic with load or
    for high density pedestrian traffic.
    4.7.2 Steps shall resist the following unfactored loadings:
    If the width w < 1200 mm, then 1,5 kN shall be distributed over an
    area of 100 mm x 100 mm where one boundary is the leading edge
    of the nosing applied at the middle of the stair width;
    If the width w 1200 mm, then respectively 1,5 kN shall be
    distributed simultaneously over each of the 100 mm x 100 mm
    areas applied at the most unfavourable points spaced at intervals of
    600 mm where one boundary is the leading edge of the nosing.
    The deflection between the structure and the steps under an unfactored
    th
    load shall not exceed 1/300 of the span or 6 mm whichever is the lesser.

    BS/EN ISO 14122-1, 2, 3

    Stairway pitch and width, etc.

    For the purpose of designing a functional and safe stairway there are
    recommendations, guidelines and codes of practice that have to be met.
    Item 3.1 Access ladders
