- Title
Elevator Maintenance Considerations For Supertall Buildings.
- Authors
Eappen, Rony
- Abstract
The type and quality of elevator maintenance should be considered at the design stage to ensure the longevity and reliability of the elevators proposed. The implications of getting this wrong will have a disproportionately adverse effect on the functioning of supertall buildings (compared to those of a lesser height). This paper addresses how that risk can be minimized. The long-term reliability of vertical transportation has an impact on design and building users, and early awareness of this in the design process can greatly assist the operation of a tall building throughout its lifecycle.
