Présentation de l'éditeur

Cw Preface In preparing this book, it has been the object of the author to present the subject treated in such a manner as to make the details of practical value to an architect, builder, or a building superintendent representing either, having a general knowledge of the work in and about elevator shafts. The principal aim and purpose of the work is to emphasize the necessity of the co-operation of all parties connected with the work of elevator shaft construction and elevator installation to produce the best results and necessary economy. The articles on elevator shaft doors and machine rooms contain information which it is hoped will be highly useful to architects in preparing their plans. It has always been, and still is, a difficult problem to determine the height of an elevator shaft bulkhead. The article pertaining to this subject has been made quite comprehensive, and the plates conform to the requirements of existing municipal regulations. The data and information contained has been gathered by the author in his own practice and systematized and generalized for the purpose of this work. As far as he knows, such data has never before been published and it is his hope that it will prove of considerable value to all interested in the subject. The author is under obligation to Albert Bauer of Brooklyn, N. Y., for much competent assistance. Information and drawings for special subjects have also been furnished by the Reliance Ball Bearing and Hanger Co.; Burdett-R owntree Co.; Peelle Co.; Elevator Supply and Repair Co.; Peterson Engineering Co.; F. T. Ellithorpe; and Oscar A. Norman for the frontispiece; to all of whom the author tenders his thanks for their freely given assistance. H. R. CULLMER, Woodhaven, N. Y., May,
