Inexpensive stirrups may be made of nickel, which can easily bend or break. Stirrups may also be made of synthetic materials and various metallic alloys. There are many variations on the standard stirrup design, most claiming either to be safer in the event of a fall or to make it easier for a rider to maintain a proper foot and leg position.
Stirrup sample. Stirrups form the outer part of a rebar cage. The function of stirrups (often referred to as 'reinforcing steel links' and 'shear links') is threefold: to give the main reinforcement bars structure, to maintain a correct level of concrete cover, and to maintain an equal transferance of force throughout the supporting elements.

Stirrup hanged from the corresponding stirrup strap. A stirrup strap or stirrup leather is a piece of leather or other material, that, attached to the saddle, holds the stirrup at its lower end. Each saddle has two stirrups and two stirrup straps. The upper end of the stirrup strap is attached to the saddle and the lower end attached to the ...
A stirrup or D-shaped tekko A clawed tekko-kagi. The tekkō (鉄甲, lit. "iron", "armor"), are weaponized stirrups and horseshoes which originated in Okinawa, Japan, and they fall into the category of "fist-load weapons". By definition, a fist-load weapon increases the mass of the hand so that, given the physical proportionality between the ...
The neck of western spurs is usually longer and the rowel wide in diameter, to accommodate the leg position of the western-style rider, where the stirrup is adjusted long, and the heavy leather used for the saddle's fenders and stirrups places the rider's leg a bit farther from the horse. English riding spur
Endurance saddle, based on a western design, with a 3/4 rigging, placing the rider more directly over the stirrups and over the center of gravity of the horse. A similar tree without a horn is used for saddles used by saddle bronc riders/ Custom built saddles may be designed with any of the above rigging styles.

Design load [ edit ] To give a conservative estimate and build redundancies into the final structural system, the ACI Building Code Requirements give a maximum reduced design load of ϕ P n {\displaystyle \mathrm {{\phi }P_{\mathrm {n} }} \,\!} where ϕ {\displaystyle \mathrm {\phi } \,\!} is the strength reduction factor for the type of column ...
