Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The purpose of this synthesis is to document highly specialized elevator/escalator (El/Es) maintenance, safety practices, and passenger communication efforts at five U.S. transit agencies: MARTA (Atlanta, Georgia), NYCTA (New York City), SEPTA (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania), CTA (Chicago, Illinois), and BART (San Francisco, California)...Together, they are part of an FTA-sponsored consortium with APTA, Amalgamated Transit Union, and the Learning Center, engaged in developing a Transit Elevator/Escalator Maintenance Training and Apprenticeship Program. The Topic Panel directed the consultant to survey and conduct in-depth telephone interviews with these transit agencies' staff to provide a comprehensive look at how representative agencies provide EI/Es services, the specific challenges they face in doing so, and the steps taken to provide safe and reliable access to all their customers and, particularly, the disabled community."--Preface.

Download or read book Elevator Traffic Handbook written by Gina Barney and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2003-09-02 with total page 525 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vertical transportation systems (elevators, lifts, escalators and passenger conveyors) are used in almost all buildings of more than a few stories high. Traffic design and control, namely the movement of people by natural and mechanical means, need to be planned carefully as the costs of under- or over-provision are considerable and changes are not always possible. The subject is covered in four sections. The basic principles of circulation and an introduction to lifts are set out at the beginning, and then traffic design methods are outlined, followed by an examination of analysis and control. The sections are complete in themselves and are presented in depth, with worked examples and case studies as appropriate. The latest analysis techniques are set out, and the book is up-to-date with current technology. The mathematics is simplified wherever possible and copious references are given for further study and examples. The practising vertical transportation engineer involved with the sizing of a vertical transportation installation will find this an excellent and authoritative resource. Other members of the design teams: architects, developers and owners, will find the book a useful reference, and the needs of researchers, lecturers and students of the subject will also be satisfied by this simple presentation of the underlying theory. The engineering aspects, which fall into the areas of manufacturing and production, are not covered, but the practical constraints and considerations are indicated.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elevators: A Practical Treatise on the Development and Design of Hand, Belt, Steam, Hydraulic, and Electric Elevators Crossing stops within a foot or so of the proper place, we call them skilled drivers; when we watch the operators of our swift passenger elevators make stop after stop in rapid succession within an inch of the proper level, we realize not only the skill displayed but also the refinement of the operator's control over the car. Modern elevator service has improved so steadily with the de mands made upon it that we hardly realize the perfection which it has reached. From sidewalk lift of one story to the trying service of the Woolworth Building, every requirement either of load or of speed is met with an ease which is truly astonishing. Q The history of the development of the elevator is practically the history of the mechanical development of the age. Starting with the crude hand elevator which was confined entirely to the handling of freight, one feature after another was added either as the necessities of the service demanded it or as the mechanical improvement of our machines and mechanicians would allow it. The motive power received its share of attention - hand, steam, hydraulic, and electric motive power being perfected in succession. The two latter alone survived in rendering the difficult passenger service of the modern skyscraper, and in late years the popular favor has been almost wholly transferred to the electric type of elevator. But developments did not stop with the motive power for the complications of service demanded perfect control methods, automatic safety devices, proper car suspensions, and ease and smoothness of running. In the hydraulic type, the pilot valve, accumulator, and the high and low-pressure systems made this type of service extremely reliable. Wonderful progress has been also made in the electric type by the improvements in motor design, both direct and alternating; the perfection of the full magnet control; and the development of the traction type for high buildings. The push-button system of control, by means of. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
