Getting an idea about what should be constructed in how much space is really hard. I only got to know about such things when my father started building another house. We all were determined to make the bedrooms large as much as possible accompanied by large windows as well. The builder knew everything about it but once came and asked my father how much area should be given for the staircase and that is when I started to learn things in detail. I asked my father what is the minimum space for staircase? He said it is you who should decide that. Everyone might not be comfortable in the same space but of course there is an approx measure for it. Let me share with you everything here.

However the minimum area required for staircase is 30 sq ft of space above and below the staircase. This measurement is the most common dimension where the ceiling is supposed to be 8 feet and the staircase width is 3 feet and horizontal space varies between 9 to 10 feet.  If you leave this amount of area, the staircase built will be very convenient to use. But if you think you lak this much of dspace, just go for the spiral staircase. They need a smaller area and can fit almost anywhere. What are the types of staircase? You can build a variety of staircase like:
  • Straight
  • L- shaped
  • Winder
  • U- shaped
  • Spiral
  • Curved
  • Bifurcated
  • Ladder.
It is better to ask the builder about it since they can explain it to you vividly, especially after knowing the minimum space for staircase.  Read More: External Staircase Vastu Which Colour Is Best For Staircase? How To Decorate Staircase Wall?

I recently renovated my home, so I have an idea about the minimum space required for staircase. I can share my insights about the same.

How much space required for staircase?

I got to know that according to the Indian National Building Code, the minimum area for staircase in a residential building must have a minimum width of 3 feet, 6 inches, and its treads must be at least 10 inches wide without nosing and 10 14 inches wide if nosing is needed. There must be 21 stairs, 20 treads, and roughly 14 feet of stringer to climb in order to reach a ceiling or floor that is 12 feet high. Determining the minimum space required for staircase is crucial for safe and functional architectural design. Factors like building codes, building type, and user needs influence the dimensions. Careful planning ensures that staircases not only meet safety standards but also contribute to the overall functionality and aesthetics of a space.
