Planning Steps

Work to be Done by General Contractor
The following specs are to be provided by the General Contractor (GC), except as noted,
prior to Marchal/Stevenson Elevator installing the elevator equipment.
1. Enclosed, plumb and square hoistway with smooth interior surfaces. Include fascia and
furring of hoistway interior, doors and frames. Fire rating of shaft to be prepared as
required by local building codes. Hoistway should be free of any obstructions not related
to elevator function (gas pipes, pilings, wiring, a/c ducts, etc.). It is recommended that the
hoistway be maintained between 40° and 120° F and interior should not be exposed to the
elements.
2. Provide 2x12 pine support #2 or better-full length of shaft (can be split), plumb and
properly supported (alternate solutions also available – see page 12). Must be capable of
supporting the loads imposed. Plank shall be fastened with deck screws or ring shank
nails – use Liquid Nails between 2x4 & 2x12. Do not sheetrock 2x12. See page 13.
3. Provide 2x6 pine support-full length of shaft (can be split), plumb and properly supported.
See page 13.
4. Provide pit – substantial level pit floor slab to support 3,000 lbs. impact load. Waterproof
pit minimum 8” below lowest floor level. (Sump pump is not required.)
5. Adequate space for the elevator machinery. See page 18.
6. If the elevator equipment is housed in a room or closet on any floor other than the attic, the
entrance door must be self-closing and self-locking to prevent unauthorized persons from
entering the area.
7. Electrical work & phone line: motor -permanent 230 volt, single phase, 30 amp dedicated
supply & disconnect by others -elevator lights- 120 volt, disconnect by others - leave 15’-
20’ extra wire to machine area. See page 17.
8. Finished openings as per Marchal/Stevenson Elevator’s shop drawings.
9. All hoistway doors require door locking devices (provided by Inclinator) as well as a door
handle and a latch set that meet ASME 17.1 requirements (i.e. adjustable ball or roller
catch, flush cabinet pull, pull handle ring lock, etc). Standard knobs/levers will not fit
appropriately unless a door baffle is applied and the area is cut-out.
10. All doors must be flush (or door baffles may be applied), swing type (single hinge) and 1
hour fire rated. See pages 13-14.
11. Provide door sills per ASME 17.1 – 2016 regulations. See page 13.
12. Overhead requirements: 12” above cab height – 9’ overhead required for 8’ inside cab
height – 8’ overhead required for 7’ inside cab height – 7’8” required for 6’8” cab height.
(Installing flooring by others will decrease the interior cab height by the thickness of the
flooring. For example: ¾” flooring by others will result in a 7’ 11¼” cab height if an 8’ cab is
selected.) If minimum overhead requirements are not available for the cab height you
desire, contact Marchal/Stevenson Elevator about possible solutions.

Hoistway Construction
CABLE DRUM – 1,000 PLANNING GUIDE 11
Alternate Hoistway Construction
The following recommendations are for hoistways constructed of concrete or hollow concrete block.
When mounting to a solid concrete wall or solid filled concrete block use (2) concrete screw anchors with a
minimum ultimate strength in tension of 3000 lbs (i.e. Redhead LDT – Large Diameter Tapcon) per a
mounting bracket.
When mounting to hollow concrete block it is best to use ½” threaded rod and thru-bolt the superstrut
to the wall. ¼” Steel plate should be used on the back side of the wall for additional strength.

Machine Room Specifications
NOTE: The CPU/Controller and Motor Control is recommended to be mounted in the same location.
However, up to 40’ controller cables are available if needed.
1. Permanent 230 volt, single phase, 30 amp dedicated supply and disconnect by others to operate
the elevator.
2. 120 volt lighting supply and disconnect by others.
3. Telephone connection: Code requires a telephone connection. A phone line must be installed
leading to the controller. In the event of a power failure, VoIP systems lose connection – use
battery backup.
4. CPU/Controller and Motor Control is recommended to be mounted in a temperature-controlled
environment between 400 F to 1200 F (40C to 490C).
5. CPU/Controller and Motor Control should not be exposed to outdoor elements.
6. Typical wiring distance from the Motor Control to the gearbox is 10’. Longer motor cables up to 50’
are available. See wiring diagram on page 19 for more information.
7. N.E.C. regulations require a minimum of 30”x36” clear unobstructed floor space in front of the
controller. N.E.C regulations also state the floor to ceiling height of the control space should be 6’-
6” high.
8. If mounting the CPU/Controller or Motor Control inside the hoistway they should be located in such
a way that they can be inspected and maintained without full body entry into the hoistway.
