ôHi all,
My question is a very basic one. what is the exact reason why an RCC wall is totally unavoidable around lifts in a building. Do anyone know of any instance where lifts were designed without an RCC walls around it.
Regards, Akbar

There is no reason that we must have to go for RCC wall around lift. The reason behind it to use RCC wall is to use these walls as shear walls for building which is optional and to accommodate insert plates and runners required for functioning of lift. It is possible to provide concrete column for runner as well as inserts and to construct remaining part with masonry.
