Elevator Rail Support Wall
Drawing Notes
1See Elevator Drawing for rail bracket spacing and pit depth.
2Wall lateral support spacing:
-for 2" x 4" studs, use 6'
-for 2" x 6" studs, use 13'
3Sheathing installation: install sheets vertically full width of shaft or min. centred on rail brackets.
4Connectors to resist horizontal load but allow vertical movement. For Wood, use 2" x ¼" cap screw lag bolts.

General Specifications |
| |
G1 | The design and construction of all work is to conform to the local applicable building code. | |
G2 | Read these drawings in conjunction with all related architectural, mechanical, electrical, and | |
| elevator drawings as well as any other contract documents. | |
G3 | The wall drawings have been prepared using engineering principles and the design loads that are | |
| applied by the elevator rails to the wall. However, the details and member sizes and the | |
| attachments to the structure should not be construed as a complete design of the wall system. | |
| The contractor and/or the project engineer is responsible to evaluate the other loads that are | |
| applied to the wall from the floor or roof system and modify member sizes or connections as | |
| required by their analysis. | |
G4 | Do not scale the drawings. | |
G5 | See elevator shop drawings for service loads (including dynamic effects) | |
| which are: | - horizontal load parallel to the wall = 194 lb. |
|
| - horizontal load perpendicular to the wall = 304 lb. |
G6 | Wood | SPF NO 1/2 Mix |
| Concrete | 3000 psi (20 Mpa) @ 28 days. If exposed use 5% to 7% air content. |
| A. Bolts | ASTM A307 |
| Mortar | Type “S” |
| Masonry |
|
| Grout | 2100 psi (14 Mpa) High Slump |
| Block | 2100 psi (14 Mpa) on net area |
G7 | Wall to be installed plumb and square within 1/8" (3mm) of top and bottom of shaft. | |
G8 | Wall lateral support spacing (H) selected for maximum horizontal deflection of H/360 from rail | |
| loads. |

Wood Construction
W1 Separate wood from concrete with waterproof barrier or use pressure treated wood. W2 Bridging Maximum Spacing: Load Bearing or Shear walls – 4' c/c
W3 Nail or screw sheathing at 6" c/c at edges and 12" c/c to other members. Use 2.5" Standard Ardox nails or 2" #12 Screws.
Masonry Construction
M1 All masonry construction to conform to applicable local standards
M2 Reinforce lintel blocks with
M3 Provide continuous ladder type joint reinforcement at 16" (400) c/c.
