Cantilever Stair and Glass Railings in Jupiter

Project Type: Stairs & Railings

Location: Jupiter, Florida

Project Overview

DOP Engineering is proud to unveil a recent project featuring a cantilever steel staircase and custom glass railings designed with precision and functionality in mind. This project showcases engineering excellence through meticulous design, careful material selection, and attention to detail.

 

Cantilever Steel Staircase

In the first place, the centerpiece of the project is a sleek cantilever steel staircase, supported by a hidden structural column connected to a cantilevered beam. This innovative design allows for an open, minimalist look while maintaining structural integrity and safety. With this intention, our team focused on optimizing the connections, welds, and anchors to ensure durability and stability.

 

Custom Glass Railings
  • Curved Glass Railing: A stunning architectural element featuring laminated glass composed of tempered glass layers and a robust SGP interlayer, providing enhanced strength, safety, and aesthetics.
  • Stair Glass Railing: Designed specifically for the steel staircase, this railing combines laminated glass with tempered glass layers and an SGP interlayer for durability and a sleek, modern look.
  • Top Finish: Each railing is topped with a 1″x1″ stainless steel U-channel, ensuring a clean, polished finish that enhances both durability and appearance.

 

Modern Design Meets Engineering Precision

As a result, this project reflects the perfect balance of structural engineering and architectural design, creating a space that is both functional and visually striking.
