How to model vertical shafts in open studio ?

Hello,

i am modeling a multi-storey building which has different vertical shafts (elevator, ...) from the bottom to the top. Now i am wondering how should i model them. Should i make an one zone/space frome the bottom to the top, or should i divide the shafts into one storey units, with an appropriate (like air) thermal conductive floor.

Thanks for your answer/advice. David
