Hoistway Construction – General Notes

A load-bearing wall is required to sustain rail reactions; please see Rail Wall Construction – Wood Stud
Wall (next page) for detail.

Hoistway must be in accordance with ASME A17.1/CSA B44-1 3 ,
AND
all local codes and regulations.

Pit floor construction must withstand a 5,500 lb. load.

Due to limited clearances, it is necessary that hoistway walls be square and plumb. Maximum
permissible deviation from hoistway top to bottom is 1/8”.

Building structure must sustain a chain hoist for hoisting elevator materials to the top of the hoistway
during installation.

A structural engineer must ensure that building and hoistway can safely support all loads imposed by
the elevator equipment.

The drawings contained herein have been prepared using engineering principles and the design
loads that are applied by the rails to the wall. However the details and member sizes and the
attachments to the structure should not be construed as a complete wall system. The contractor
and/or the project engineer are responsible to evaluate the other loads that are applied to the wall
from the floor or roof system and modify sizes or connections as required by their analysis.
