A dog-leg is a configuration of stairs between two floors of a building, often a domestic building, in which a flight of stairs ascends to a quarter-landing before turning at a right angle and continuing upwards. The flights do not have to be equal, and frequently are not. Structurally, the flights of a dog-leg stair are usually supported by the quarter-landing, which spans the adjoining flank walls. From the design point of view, the main advantages of a dog-leg stair are:

A dog-leg is a configuration of stairs between two floors of a building, often a domestic building, in which a flight of stairs ascends to a quarter-landing before turning at a right angle and continuing upwards. The flights do not have to be equal, and frequently are not. Structurally, the flights of a dog-leg stair are usually supported by the quarter-landing, which spans the adjoining flank walls. From the design point of view, the main advantages of a dog-leg stair are:
* To allow an arrangement that occupies a shorter, though wider, floor area than a straight flight, and so is more compact. Even though the landings consume total floor space, there is no large single dimension.
* The upper floor is not directly visible from the bottom of the stairs, thereby providing more privacy.
