Introduction

This planning guide is designed to assist architects, contractors, home owners and elevator professionals in planning for an INFINITY Residential Elevator to meet the requirements of ASME A17.1 Part 5, Section 5.3 and CAN/CSA B44 Part 5, Section 5.3.

We strongly recommend that you contact the code authority having jurisdiction in the area(s) where the elevator will be installed to become familiar with all the legal requirements governing the installation and use of elevators in private residences. It is extremely important for you to know and adhere to all regulations pertaining to the installation and use of elevators.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

This Planning Guide provides nominal dimensions and specifications useful for the initial planning of an elevator project. Before beginning actual construction be sure to receive application drawings customized with specifications and dimensions for your specific project.

Elevator configurations and dimensions are in accordance with our interpretation of the standards set forth by ASME A17.1 Part 5, Section 5.3 and CAN/CSA B44 Part 5, Section 5.3. Please consult Concord Elevator Inc. or the authorized Concord dealer in your area for more specific information pertaining to your project, including any discrepancy between referenced standards and those of any local codes or laws.

The dimensions and specifications in this Planning Guide are subject to change (without notice) due to product enhancements and continually evolving codes and product applications.

Planning for an INFINITY Residential Elevator

1. Determine customer’s intention for use.

2. Determine code requirements of site.

3. Determine installation parameters of site.

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.
