Elevators

1 An elevator (lift) is a permanent lifting installation serving two or more defined landing levels. It
comprises an enclosed space, or car, whose dimensions and means of construction clearly permit
the access of people, and which runs between rigid vertical guides. A lift, therefore, is a vehicle
for raising and lowering people and/or goods from one floor to another within a building directly
5 (single push-button control) or with intermediate stops (collective control).

A second category is the service lift. It is a permanent lifting installation serving defined levels,
but with a car that is too small to transport people. Service lifts transport foods and supplies in
hotels and hospitals, books in libraries, mail in office buildings and so on. Generally, the floor
area of such a car does not exceed 1 m2, its depth 1 m, and its height 1.20 m.
10
Elevators are driven directly by an electric motor (electric lifts) or indirectly, through the
movement of a liquid under pressure that is generated by a pump driven by an electric motor
(hydraulic lifts).

Electric lifts are almost exclusively driven by traction machines, geared or gearless, depending
on car speed. The designation “traction” means that the power from an electric motor is
15 transmitted to the multiple rope suspension of the car and a counterweight by friction between
the specially shaped grooves of the driving or traction sheave of the machine and the ropes.

Hydraulic lifts have become widely used since the 1970s for the transport of goods and
passengers. They are usually used for a height not exceeding six floors. Hydraulic oil is used as
pressure fluid. The direct-acting system with a ram supporting and moving the car is the simplest
20 one.

Tools

1 Tools are particularly important in construction work. They are primarily used to put things together
(e.g., hammers and nail guns) or to take them apart (e.g., jackhammers and saws). Tools are often classified
as hand tools and power tools. Hand tools include all non-powered tools, such as hammers and pliers.
5 Power tools are divided into classes, depending on the power source: electrical tools (powered by
electricity), pneumatic tools (powered by compressed air), liquid-fuel tools (usually powered by gasoline),
powder-actuated tools (usually powered by an explosive and operated like a gun) and hydraulic tools
(powered by pressure from a liquid). Each type presents some unique safety problems.

10 Hand tools include a wide range of tools, from axes to wrenches. The primary hazard from hand
tools is being struck by them or by a piece of the material being worked on. Eye injuries are very common
from the use of hand tools, as a piece of wood or metal can fly off and lodge in the eye. Some of the major
15 problems are using the wrong tool for the job or a tool that has not been properly maintained. The size of
the tool is important: some women and men with relatively small hands have difficulty with large tools.
Dull tools can make the work much harder, require more force and result in more injuries. A chisel with a
mushroomed head might shatter on impact and send fragments flying. It is also important to have the
proper work surface. Cutting material at an awkward angle can result in a loss of balance and an injury. In
20 addition, hand tools can produce sparks that can ignite explosions if the work is being done around
flammable liquids or vapors. In such cases, spark-resistant tools, such as those made from brass or
aluminum, are needed.

Power tools, in general, are more dangerous than hand tools, because the power of the tool is
25 increased. The biggest dangers from power tools are from accidental startup and slipping or losing one’s
balance during use. The power source itself can cause injuries or death, for example, through electrocution
with electrical tools or gasoline explosions from liquid-fuel tools. Most power tools have a guard to protect
the moving parts while the tool is not in operation. These guards need to be in working order and not
30 overridden. A portable circular saw, for example, should have an upper guard covering the top half of the
blade and a retractable lower guard which covers the teeth while the saw is not operating. The retractable
guard should automatically return to cover the lower half of the blade when the tool is finished working.
Power tools often also have safety switches that shut off the tool as soon as a switch is released. Other tools
