Vertical Transportation
System of the Elevator in Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Tower
History
1852: Safety brake invited by Elisha Graves Otis
1878: First hydraulic passenger elevator
1950: First elevator operated without attendant
1979: First fully-integrated microcomputer system
2000: Machine room-less elevator system that uses coated-steel belts instead of ropes introduced
Introduction
Elevator is a platform or an enclosure raised and lowered in a vertical shaft to transport people or freight. Besides that, elevator play important roles in public transportation, moving passengers vertically to above and below grade level. Elevators are the most commonly used mode of vertical transportation in modern buildings.They are generally powered by electric motors that either drive traction cables and counterweight systems while pump hydraulic fluid used to raise a cylindrical piston. According to U.B.B.L ,Clause 124 ; for all non-residential buildings exceeding 4 storeys above or below the main access level at least one lift shall be provided. There are three type of elevator system ;
a. Traction elevator
b. Hydraulic elevator
c. Climbing elevator
Objective
To overcome the problem with provide the best system
To understand the effectiveness of different types elevator system
To recognize the important of proper elevators and its suitability in the building
Problem
The increase numbers of people present and the vertical distances can represent significant problems for evacuation in high rise building
The time required to evacuate a high rise building .
The lack of maintenance and poor management for the elevator
The types and age of the elevator use
The less number of elevator provided in peak building
Question
What is the best type of elevator system for high rise building in Menara SAAS?
How fast the elevator to move up and down?
How to recognize the best maintenance on elevators systems?
What are the new technology used for the elevators systems?
