Construction Requirements for Guide Rail Structural Support:

Use a 4" x 12" board or create an assembly of two 2" x 4" boards and two 2" x 12" boards using wood glue and #10 x 2 1/2" wood screws to create a structural support of appropriate strength (as shown below).

Secure the above guide rail support at the top and bottom of the hoistway as well as at nine foot increments (or less) down the length of the hoistway.

Structural Support Assembly:

Minimum Rail Reactions:

RX = 215 foot pounds RY = 550 foot pounds

Safety considerations are not included in above rail reactions. When designing the hoistway you must include appropriate safety conditions. The force to pull out each fastener should not be less than 150 lbs.

See Page 16 for more details about
