About this block

A floor plate carries two parallel escalator runs with a straight stair between them, all seen in plan. Each machine is a block named BL-ESCALERA ELECTRICA measuring 12,750 by 1,650 units, which is 12.75 m long and 1.65 m wide read as millimetres and matches a real single-width unit; the dashed rectangles drawn around them mark the truss opening in the slab. The stair between is drawn tread by tread across the full width. Layers include ESCALERAS ELECTRICAS, OP-ARQ-PISO for the floor finish and COL for the columns.

This is the standard arrangement for a department store, metro concourse or airport landside: a pair of escalators carrying the flow, and a fixed stair between them for short trips and for when the machines stop. The whole assembly sits inside a wrapper block placed at 0.75, so reset that scale to 1 before you measure anything off it. Keep the dashed truss outlines when the plan is issued, since those are the openings the structural engineer has to design around.

Questions

How long is each escalator?

The escalator block is drawn 12,750 by 1,650 units, so 12.75 m long and 1.65 m wide read as millimetres, which suits a floor-to-floor of about five metres.

What does the layer ESCALERAS ELECTRICAS mean?

It is Spanish for escalators, literally electric stairs, and it holds the two machines so they can be isolated from the floor plan.
