Introduction

This book is to be delivered to the General Contractor or Project Manager at the first job site visit. With this book and in conjunction with the sales approvals, the Otis Superintendent will cover important information regarding the preparation of the job site. It is the goal of Otis Elevator to guarantee a safe work environment to all employees. The Otis Superintendent with this book will go over the requirements that are needed for Otis to begin work in a safe and quality environment. Otis is committed to turning over a quality elevator to the final customer. The intent of this book along with the sales approvals is to guarantee communication between the local office and the party with which Otis Elevator has a sales contract. Any suggestion as to how Otis could better communicate in the future will be appreciated. For any suggestions please communicate through the Otis Construction Superintendent.

Elevator Installation Process

General Contractor’s / Project Manager’s Guide to the Elevator Installation Process

Coordination between the various building trades during the elevator installation process is essential for the smooth installation, completion, and final Code Authority acceptance of the project elevators. The information contained in this reference manual is intended as a tool and an aid to the General Contractor/Project Manager. The purpose is to ensure that “elevator related” work items are identified early in the construction process. This will allow other trades sufficient time to complete their work to permit a timely elevator installation and successful final elevator inspection by the local Code Enforcing Authority. A Contractors Pre-Start Checklist and key items of coordination is enclosed, along with a “Work by Others Reference” section. This information should be shared with the appropriate subcontractors. The checklist items must be completed, and the form signed and returned, before Otis can begin the installation. If drilling is required, the “Outside Drilling Information” form must be completed and a copy sent to Otis and the Drilling contractor. A Contractors Pre-Inspection Checklist of the non-elevator work items is enclosed. This form along with the “Work by Others Reference” section serves as a ready reference. These items, which are often cited as deficiencies during the Code Authority inspection, must to be complete prior to the elevator being inspected and approved for public use. Prior to calling for Code Inspection, all elevator as well as non-elevator work items, outlined in the pre-inspection checklist, must be complete and ready for final inspection. Otis will not be responsible for re-inspection fees or additional labor cost caused by the failure of other trades to perform as required. We would also like to take the opportunity to advise you that it is the policy of Otis Elevator Company that 90% of the contract amount is paid before the equipment is turned over to you. If you foresee any problems with this requirement, please contact the Otis Superintendent.

The enclosed information is provided as a reference based on current Code interpretations and experience. Local Code Authority interpretation of requirements may at times differ and obviously will govern.

HydroFit MRL Access Door Shroud

Purpose & Design: The HydroFit machine room less (MRL) arrangement requires the use of a shroud that serves three purposes:

1. It provides a mounting location for the mainline and cab lighting disconnects 2. It defines the space that is allowed for the disconnects to avoid any potential

interference with the elevator components. 3. It acts as a barrier to prevent access to the hoistway in the upper portion of the

MRL access door.

The shroud design is not “handed”; it will work with either left or right MRL machine space locations. The shroud is simply flipped accordingly to orient the deeper section toward the rear of the hoistway for passenger duties or to orient the deeper section to the front of the hoistway for hospital (service) duties. The cover plate on the bottom of the shroud is then removed. Installation: The shroud ships with hardware and brackets for mounting it in the machine space door jamb, adjustable unistrut sections for mounting the mainline disconnects to the shroud, and both top and bottom covers (note: once installed the cover on the bottom is removed).

Shroud shown with

disconnects installed

Note: The small brackets may need to be removed and reattached depending on the which side of the hoistway the MRL access door is and what “hand” of the shroud is needed…the deeper section of the shroud is oriented toward the rear of the hoistway for passenger duties (2100, 2500, 3000, 3500) or toward the front of the hoistway for hospital (service) duties (4500, 5000, 5000AIA). EXAMPLE: For a 2500lb duty passenger car, orient the deep portion of shroud to rear of hoistway; shallow portion toward the front of hoistway

Mounting brackets can be used to hang shroud from top of door jamb; the brackets also

set the correct depth of the shroud in the jamb

Unistrut provides adjustment for mounting

a range of disconnect cabinet sizes

Brackets to set (locate) shroud from

top of door jamb

Front of Hoistway

Attach mounting brackets to top of shroud w/ screws

provided

If top of jamb is >2” the supplied brackets may

not work as intended

Small cover plates used to fill slots

when smaller disconnects are

mounted

Unistrut can be removed if

necessary for deeper disconnects

The shroud fits inside jamb and is butted up against the top inside of the jamb; ensure

that it is plumb and parallel to the jamb; attach to jamb with screws provided.

Hoistway side

Inside top of door jamb

Make sure the shroud butts up against the top of the door jamb

Depending on door stop width, the shroud may not butt up against the door stop – use mounting brackets to set correct depth in jamb

Door stop

Shroud ships with top and bottom cover so that it is not handed – only the top cover is needed once it is installed, the bottom can be removed

Cutouts will need to be made in the top cover to accommodate disconnect feeder conduit

Top cover not shown

Disconnects should not extend below the lower notch in

the shroud

Note: there may be a gap between the shroud and the door stop

Note: There should be a small notch (approximately 7/8” gap) between the door jamb

and top-most and bottom-most edges of the shroud. This gap at the bottom allows

clearance for the top mounting bracket for the controller.

Preparatory Work By Others

of 5 Revision: 03/16/2012

PREPARATORY WORK BY OTHERS The following items must be performed or provided at no cost to Otis Elevator Company (“Otis”) by the Owner or General Contractor or their agents in accordance with governing codes. The price and installation schedule of Otis is based on these jobsite conditions existing at the beginning and during installation of the elevator equipment. Failure to provide the items specified in this list will result in additional work performed by Otis beyond the scope of our contract causing installation delays. A change order will be submitted by Otis for materials and / or labor expended. All work to be performed per the latest revision of the applicable national code and / or local code.

General Prep / Work

1. Provide any cutouts to accommodate elevator equipment (troughing, venting, and hall fixtures) along with patching and painting of walls, floors, or partitions together with finish painting of entrance doors and frames, if required.

2. Provide tractor trailer access to the building for unloading of material and an onsite storage area for elevator equipment as follows: dry and enclosed, provides roll-able access to the elevator hoistway at the ground level, located within 100 feet (30.5 meters) of the hoistway, and is larger than 25 x 20 feet (7620 mm X 6096 mm) per elevator. Any warranties provided by Otis for elevator equipment are null and void if equipment is stored in a manner other than a dry enclosed building structure.

3. Provide sufficient onsite refuse containers for the proper disposal of elevator packaging material. Should sufficient refuse containers not be provided, disposal of packaging material shall become the responsibility of the owner.

Hoistway and Pit Prep / Work

4. Prior to the start of installation, provide a dry, properly framed, enclosed and vented hoistway in accordance with all applicable codes.

5. Provide a clear plumb hoistway with variations from the size shown on the Otis layout not to exceed -0 inch / +1 inch (25 mm).

6. Install per Machine Room / Machine Space Prep / Work and Electrical Requirements.

Provide a rough opening for and install a 3’ X 7’ standard fire rated interior door on one side of the hoistway, as shown on the Otis layout. When determining the location of the machine space door,the dimension on the Otis layout is from the inside door edge of the jamb and not the door stop edge. Please be advised that this door location is very critical. Follow door manufacturing instructions for the different types of hoistway wall material and make the appropriate adjustments so that this door will be placed in the proper location.

The door frame must be securely mounted to the wall to sustain a cantilevered / horizontal force exerted by the electrical disconnect(s), electrical conduit, and wiring up to an approximate 150 lb. load. Install per Machine Room / Machine Space Prep / Work and Electrical Requirements. The door should be able to open fully (180°).

7. Furnish adequate rail bracket supports and bracket spacing as required by governing code from pit floor to top of hoistway. For steel or wood frame construction, adequate backing for a rail bracket to be installed not less than 10’-3” (3124 mm) or more than 11’-3” (3429 mm) from the top landing. Furnish separator beams where required. Rail bracket attachment supports must be exposed and flush with the clear hoistway line.

If the floor to floor height exceeds the maximum bracket spacing allowed by the elevator code, Otis requires some form of steel support to properly attach our guide rail brackets. The maximum allowed bracket spacing is indicated in the rail force and bracket detail table on the Otis layout. Any rail bracket mounting surfaces that are not in line with the finished hoistway dimension (i.e. the clear hoistway line) may need to be extended to meet the required distance. Otis agrees to provide guidance on this matter at the appropriate time.

If rail bracket embedded plates or inserts are provided by Otis, they shall be installed by others in accordance with Otis’ documentation and instruction.

If vertical tube steel is utilized as rail support, (2) vertical tubes spaced at 20.4” (518 mm) on center are required for car rail brackets with “A” dimension ≥ 5.76” (146 mm). For Machine Space applications, horizontal rail bracket supports must be provided. Note: Vertical supports will interfere with the machine space access door.


8. Furnish a dry pit reinforced to sustain vertical forces on car rails and impact loads on cylinder head(s) and buffer(s). The pit must be dry and clean. The elevator pit must have a floor drain or sump pump to prevent the accumulation of water. Location to be coordinated with Otis to avoid all elevator components and access areas. In areas requiring Firefighter’s Emergency Operation, a sump pump / drain shall be provided that shall have the capacity to remove a minimum of 11.4 m³ / h (3,000 gal / h) per elevator (2.2.2.5, ASME A17.1-2007 / CSA B44-07). Otis recommends that the owner verify the system complies with all applicable laws and local codes.

9. Provide and install a fixed vertical iron ladder in each pit as required by governing code and located per Otis layouts, or as coordinated with Otis personnel. Ladder width and projection from wall per local code. If pit depth is greater than 9’-10” (3000 mm) [13’-9” (4191 mm) with no floor below bottom landing], a pit access door is required.

10. A.) Protection from Falls:

As required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 1926.502 (B) (1-3), a freestanding removable barricade at each hoistway opening at each floor. Barricades shall be 42” (1067 mm) high, with mid-rail and kick board, and withstand 200 lbs. (90.7 kg) of vertical and horizontal pressure.

B.) Protection from Falling Objects:

As required by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) 1926.502(j), hoistway protection from falling debris and other trades materials by either:

1.) Full entrance screening / mesh in front of all elevator entrances. 2.) Secured / controlled access to all elevator lobbies (lock and key) with posted Notice “Only

Elevator Personnel Beyond This Protection.” Notes:

- Items A.) and B.) can be integrated systems. - Hoistway barricades and screening shall be constructed, maintained, and removed by others.

11. The front entrance wall at the main landing, is not to be constructed until after all elevator equipment is installed in the hoistway (the entire front wall – CLEAR HOISTWAY WIDTH – must be open for installation). Remaining front entrance walls are not to be constructed until after door frames and sills are in place.

The rough openings, per sizes shown on the Otis layout, are required. Prior to the completion and turnover of the elevator(s), all entrance walls must be installed and rough openings filled in complete to maintain fire rated hoistway requirements.

12. Provide adequate support at all fastening points of each entrance. Provide plumb vertical surfaces for entrances and sill supports, one above the other, and square with the hoistway. For 4’-0” (1219 mm) and 4’-6” (1372 mm) two speed door arrangements, an additional hoistway attachment point is required for an auxiliary support bracket under the sill assembly in the center of the clear door opening. Finish floor and grout, if required, between door frames to sill line. A horizontal support is to be provided 1 foot (305 mm) above the clear opening at the top landing to support the door frame assembly. If floor heights exceed 12’-0” (3658 mm), a horizontal support is to be provided 1 foot (305 mm) above the clear opening. If transoms are required, the support would be 1 foot (305 mm) above the transom height.

13. Provide and install a steel safety beam per elevator, from side wall to side wall at the top of the hoistway, capable of withstanding a maximum net live load of 5000 lb. (2268 kg). Otis requires 2” (51 mm) clear above the beam. Beam must be removed before car is placed in operation if it infringes on required clearance.

14. Glass used in hoistway construction must block 98% or more of incident full spectrum ultraviolet radiation for the full height of the hoistway.

15. If an emergency door in a blind hoistway is required, provide an outward swinging single section type door with door closer and a self closing barrier per ASME A17.1-2007, section 2.11.1.2.

Common Inspection Violations

1

Common Inspection Violations Before the elevator(s) can be complete and ready for inspection by the state or local inspector, all requirements of the ASME/ANSI A.17.1 Elevator Code and local code requirements must be met. This includes completion of work that must be performed by other trades. Per our agreement, it is Otis’ responsibility to arrange for this inspection. We ask you to ensure that all “work by others” has been completed prior to our agreed upon date for inspection. Note - If the elevator installation does not pass inspection due to uncompleted work by others, then all additional costs associated with a re-inspection will not be the responsibility of Otis. Below is a list of common inspection violations. A review of these items along with the Pre-Inspection Checklist is recommended prior to the inspection process to allow for any necessary corrective action. Elevator Pits

□ Elevator pits shall be waterproof and designed to provide a dry pit area.

Standing water in the pit area is considered a major violation of Code. Note - A sump pump cannot be used alone to meet the requirements of providing a dry pit area. Proper waterproofing is required.

□ Drain holes connected to the building sanitary sewer are not allowed in the

elevator pit under any circumstances. □ The floor of the pit shall be approximately level.

□ Sump pumps must be set into the pit floor and a metal cover provided to cover

the entire sump hole level with the pit floor. It must drain to approved area or oil separator device, not a sanitary sewer. The purpose of the sump pump is to remove casual water from the pit. Note - Check with local code authorities for specific local requirements .

□ Any pit more than 3’-0” deep shall be provided with a non-combustible access

ladder. □ An externally guarded permanent lighting fixture and a GFCI convenience outlet

shall be provided in each pit. The light switch must be located as to be accessible from the pit access door and provide an illumination of not less than 10 foot-candles at the pit floor.

□ Provide patching of pit floor after setting of cylinder assembly to accommodate a

watertight condition.

2

Elevator Hoistways □ Hoistways serving more than two (2) floors shall be provided with means for

venting smoke and hot gases directly to the outer air or through non-combustible ducts to the outer air in case of fire. Vents shall be located in the side of the hoistway directly below the roof or directly over the hoistway. The clear open area of the vents shall be not less than three and one-half (3 ½) percent of the area of the hoistway, and in no case less than three (3) square feet for each hoistway, whichever is greater. Note - More stringent local building codes will take precedence over elevator code requirements. Special attention is required for hoistway ventilation exposed to weather. Vents shall have an insect screen to prevent the entry of birds, insects, etc.

□ Hoistway enclosures shall have substantially flush surfaces. Beams, floor, slabs,

or other building construction shall not project more than two (4) inches inside the general line of the hoistway unless the top and bottom of the projection is beveled at the angle of not less than 75° degrees with the horizontal. Where setbacks occur, the top of the setback shall be beveled at the same angle. Setbacks or recesses at the hoistway vent are included under this requirement. This requirement does not apply to divider beam(s) between elevators.

□ Drywall construction, if used, shall be a tested assembly approved for the use it is

being applied to (partition wall or floor-ceiling assembly). Only non-combustible systems are approved. Penetrations in the dry wall assembly for elevator fixtures are required, and the responsibility for maintaining the fire rating of the dry wall system at these points is borne by the system installer. Note - More stringent local building codes will take precedence over elevator code in regard to the fire rating of elevator hoistways.

□ Hoistway door entrance frames and headers shall be grouted solid to maintain fire

ratings of the hoistway. □ All voids, holes, slots, etc., in the hoistway shall be grouted or pointed up to

maintain fire rating of the hoistway. □ All nails, snap-ties, form straps, and wood shall be removed from the hoistway.

□ Only equipment required for the operation of the elevator is permitted inside the

elevator hoistway. □ Landing areas for all floors and elevator lobbies shall be completed prior to the

inspection.

Elevator Machine Rooms □ Only machinery and equipment required for the operation of the elevator shall be

permitted in the elevator machine room. Pipes or ducts conveying gases, vapors, or liquid or electrical equipment, wiring, piping and controls not used for the operation of the elevator are prohibited in the elevator machine room.

□ The elevator machine room shall be free of refuse and shall not be used for

storage of any materials not related to the elevator equipment. □ Machine room doors shall have fire rating with labels. Doors shall be self-closing

and self-locking. Minimum height of the door is 6’-0”. Minimum width of the door is 30”. The door lock shall be of the type that can be opened from the inside without a key. However, a key is required to open the door from the outside at all times. Push-button type locks are not allowed in the machine room door.

□ Machine rooms shall have a minimum of seven (7) feet clear headroom under all

obstructions (including hoist beam, light fixtures, etc.). □ Machine room floors shall be smooth and level.

□ Machine rooms shall have adequate ventilation to avoid overheating of the

equipment. Ambient temperature in machine room is to be maintained between 60°-100° all times, or as detailed in our submittal. Relative humidity not to exceed 95% non-condensing.

□ Special attention is required for machine room ventilation and machine room

doors when exposed to the weather. Extra precautions must be taken to prevent entry of blowing rain.

□ Adequate lighting shall be provided in the elevator machine room to provide not

less than ten 19 foot-candles at all areas of the floor level. The light switch shall be located within 18”on the lock-jamb side of the access door.

□ A GFCI type duplex receptacle shall be provided in the elevator machine room.

□ All voids, holes, slots, etc., in the machine room shall be grouted or pointed up to

maintain the fire rating. All nails, snap-ties, form straps, and wood shall be removed from the machine room walls, floor, and ceiling.

□ Provide a Class “ABC” fire extinguisher.

□ A lockable fused disconnect switch in machine room with feeder wires to elevator

controller, all piped in accordance with N.E.C. or C.E.C. (Canadian Electrical Code), and grounded.
