A building site device includes a climbing formwork platform for the floor-by-floor production of concreting portions of a building core having at least one elevator shaft. An elevator system has an elevator machine platform vertically movable in the elevator shaft. In order to minimize the use of lifting cranes and the manual raising of supporting structures, the elevator machine platform can be moved jointly with the climbing formwork platform.

A lifting device for lifting a payload within an elevator shaft in a controllable manner has a platform to be fixed in the elevator shaft, a holding device to be fixed to the payload, a lifting cable attached to the holding device, a securing cable secured to the holding device (such as, for example, a pulling device secured to the platform), and a catching device secured to the platform. The pulling device actively and controllably displaces the lifting cable relative to the platform. The lifting device displaces the securing cable in the event of a relative movement between the holding device and the platform such that the securing cable remains tensioned. The securing cable and the catching device are configured such that the catching device blocks a further relative movement between the securing cable and the catching device in the event that the lifting cable fails.

A mobile transport device and a method for introducing an installation frame into a shaft, in particular an elevator shaft, are used for transporting an installation frame and for introducing the installation frame into the shaft. The installation frame has a base frame and a bearing frame on which the installation frame is supported from above. The transport device additionally has a fixing device arranged on the base frame for fixing the base frame to a shaft opening of a shaft wall of the shaft and for preventing the transport device from tilting. The bearing frame is supported by the base frame and is movable in the horizontal direction relative to the base frame such that, when the base frame is arranged outside of the shaft, the bearing frame, and thus also the installation frame, can be moved into the shaft from outside the shaft through the shaft opening.

Method for building an elevator system in a building under construction including: installing in an elevator shaft a movable machine platform supporting an elevator car and a counterweight; installing above the machine platform a lifting platform; raising the lifting platform by a construction crane or lifting device before raising the machine platform; and equipping the lifting platform with a cable catch device having a safety cable arranged between the lifting platform and a cable pulley support fixed above the lifting platform, the safety cable having a first load-bearing cable portion fixed to or above the lifting platform and a last load-bearing cable portion guided through a cable stop device attached to the lifting platform, the cable stop device blocking the last portion to prevent further lowering of the lifting platform after a speed of the last portion relative to the cable stop device exceeds a specified limit.

A measuring tape arrangement is used in an elevator system for determining a position of an elevator car along a travel path. The measuring tape arrangement has a one-piece measuring tape arranged along the travel path, wherein varying location information is stored along the measuring tape, by which information a current position of the car relative to the measuring tape can be determined, and a retaining structure arranged at an upper end of the travel path on which structure the measuring tape is fastened by a fastening device at a fixed position relative to the travel path. A receiving device receiving a measuring tape supply is arranged on the retaining structure, wherein a measuring tape piece of the measuring tape supply can arranged along an extension portion when the travel path is extended upwards by one extension portion.

A method and construction site device for vertical transportation during a building construction phase include a climbing formwork platform arranged in a currently uppermost region of the building for concreting at least part of the building core, an elevator car intermittently adjusted to a current building height in a first elevator shaft by hoisting a mechanical platform to a higher level and fixing it there, a construction elevator temporarily installed in a second elevator shaft and attached to the climbing formwork platform with a construction elevator car vertically movable in a construction elevator frame, and wherein people and/or material are transported to a floor associated with an access opening of the construction elevator by the elevator system and then are transported from this floor to a floor situated in the currently uppermost region of the building or to the climbing formwork platform by the construction elevator.

Method for operating a construction site device and construction site device

A method for constructing at least two elevators in a building under construction adapts the usable lifting heights of the elevators to an increasing height of the building, wherein each of the elevators is arranged in an elevator shaft of the building associated with the elevator and includes a drive platform having an elevator drive machine that supports and drives an elevator car and a counterweight by a traction sheave and at least one flexible suspension device. In order to adapt the usable lifting heights, lifting operations are performed in which in alternation one of the drive platforms is raised to a higher level in the associated elevator shaft and is locked there. A single lifting platform is temporarily fastened above the particular drive platform to be lifted to apply a lifting force required to raise the drive platform, which force is transferred to supporting elements of the elevator shaft.
