Abstract
A step support used in the construction of a staircase that can be attached to a stringer and is capable of securely supporting a step. The apparatus comprises a relatively thin first side member, a relatively thin second side member and a filler block. The filler block is smaller than the first and second side members and is attached between them so that there is a gap between the first side member and the second side member. The step support is attached to the stringer so that the stringer fits in the gap and the side members extend over the sides of the stringer. The step support is attached to the stringer through the use of a plurality of fasteners.
