ABSTRACT:
A modular support system useable for a pool or spa is disclosed. A prefabricated pool or spa stairs may be supported by utilizing a plurality of stiffeners each extending along the length of the bottom of a step of the prefabricated stairs. Within the stiffeners are a plurality of openings within which posts may be inserted. The posts contact the bottom surface of the top side of each stiffener to support the stiffener and a load placed upon the step supported by the stiffener. The stiffener is constructed to help minimize deflection of the step when a load off is placed thereon. A locking mechanism may be used to lock each post within into the opening. If desired, only posts supporting the top step may be placed upon a stable surface and the remaining posts, after insertion into their respective openings, may remain hanging above the stable surface. Concrete may be poured on the stable surface to embed each of the posts therein.
