Steel stairs with balustrade stringers
Expressive design
In the centre of the ultra modern office block, the steel stairs winding up in a three-centred ellipse are a real eye-catcher.
Project description
WTZ III in Heilbronn
On 30 July 2015, the Centre for Science and Technology WTZ III was officially opened in the presence of representatives from science, politics and economy in the business development area “Zukunftspark Wohlgelegen” in Heilbronn. The smooth-faced underside soffit shaped to match the steel stairs run and the balustrade stringers constitute additional impressive features.
Balustrade stringers for steel stairs
The experts from MetallArt constructed the balustrade stringers for the steel stairs from welded rectangular H-shaped profiles which were fastened at the top and bottom to the load-bearing concrete stairs in a force-closed manner. The stringers have a thickness between 8 and 12 mm and are approximately 1,430 mm high. The steel steps and landing structures were welded between the stringers.
Smooth-faced steel underside soffit for steel stairs
The smooth-faced steel underside soffit is the most fashionable element in modern stairs architecture. In this project, such a soffit was also realised by shaping steel plates to match the spiralled stairs ground projection and fixing them to the underside of the steel stairs.
