    The document discusses vertical transportation and liftwell construction for buildings. It recommends: 1. Providing basement services via a separate group of "shuttle" lifts to avoid compromising traffic handling of the main lift group. 2. Constructing the sidewalls of the liftwell from reinforced concrete at least 150mm thick, or brick or similar fire-resistant materials. 3. Using partition walls between lifts in a common liftwell made of reinforced concrete, brick, steel, or glass which can have openings for air displacement.
