About this detail

Elevator basis of design loading criteria diagram indicating pit loads, guide rail loads, and hoist beam lifting capacities. Rail support posts are designed for a maximum horizontal deflection of one-eighth inch under normal loads of nine hundred pounds and twelve hundred pounds, and seismic loads of thirty-nine hundred pounds and two thousand pounds acting nonconcurrently. The maximum lifting capacity of the hoist beam is nine thousand pounds considered as a point load located approximately at midspan.
