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.
