We rode up to the twenty-eighth floor, a single vast room, with various hoistway openings in the floor, like crevasses. |
Immediately following the occurrence, other stevedores entered the hoistway to assist the injured. |
The drop car shares a hoistway with another half-elevator, from which a tester can examine the performance of safety brake shoes. |
A moment later, the rope hoist main drive unit failed and the platform, with four riders still onboard, free-fell to the bottom of the hoistway. |
By means of the aerodynamic fairing, wind noise and pressure waves occurring in the hoistway are reduced to the minimum. |
Elevator kinematics describes the motion of an elevator car in a hoistway, regardless of mass or force. |
