stringers
Stairs' hidden supports
Stringers are long structural supports, typically running horizontally to reinforce or connect other elements.
In construction, stringers support stair treads.
In journalism, a stringer is a freelance correspondent who contributes stories to a publication without being on staff: The paper relies on stringers for local coverage.
In fishing, a stringer is a line or chain threaded through the gills of caught fish to keep them in the water.
