među podest
intermediate landing


Explanation:
podest = landing (kod stepenica)
http://www.stairsolution.com/stair-terminology.html
A landing area is an area near the bottom or top of the stairs. An intermediate landing is an area of rest in the middle of a staircase. This intermediate platform or landing area allows the stairs to change directions. It also provides an element of privacy so guests on the bottom floor cannot simply look up the stairs to see onto the next level.

http://www.un.org/esa/socdev/enable/designm/AD2-04.htm
*An intermediate landing should be provided when the stairs cover a difference in level of more than 2.50 m.
