ELEVATOR CONNECTION DETAIL
ELEVATOR CONNECTION DETAIL
(OP)
It's my first time to design building with an elevator - a three-storey steel frame for an apartment.
I am getting stuck on how to properly detail the connection.
Please share any samples or relevant ideas to help.

- It will probably be hoist type since it is for three-storey only.
A friend helped to make an assumption of 15kN load on each hook.
I didn't know how he got 15kN but I used that value plus floor load
to design four steel columns supporting the elevator at each corner.
- I am seeking for connection detail of hooks to columns (or beams)
and the elevator itself to hooks.
I will really appreciate if you correct me on anything that is not
compliant with actual construction and practice.
