•As a rule of thumb, skyscrapers require a mechanical floor for every
10 tenant floors (10%)
•In some buildings they are clustered in groups that divide the building
• into blocks,
• in others they are spread evenly through the structure,
• while in others still they are mostly concentrated at the top.
Mechanical floors are generally counted in the building's floor numbering but are
accessed only by service elevators.
The height of the mechanical floor is less than the normal floor heights of the building.
