STAIR FRAMING Q.

[SCBO1]

Would you require a stamped set of plans on an apartment set of stairs?

Some of you may have to require them by your state laws.

Should be part of the structural drawings

Maybe shop drawings "approved" by the building designer?

 

[steveray]

How big of a building? Replacement stairs or new building? IN CT all plans for buildings (And alterations) >5000sqft need a designers seal...

 

[Tim Mailloux]

Ussually stairs are a delegated design item where the stair fabricator is required to submit signed and sealed shop drawings and calculations to the design team for review & approval. These signed and sealed shop drawings and calculations should be submitted to the AHJ as a deffered submittal.

Existing apartment complex with steel stair stringers with concrete steps being replaced with Fortress Evolution steel stair system. Plans came in without a stamp. I would normally require the plans to be stamped, just curious if that's the norm.

All they need to do is pay for the stamp and the manufacturer will supply it
