Abstract

This Technical Report provides rationale for elevator seismic force determination in ASME A17.1/CSA B44, Section 8.4. It details ASME A17.1/CSA B44 harmonization efforts with all building codes and summarizes the harmonization impact on elevator design via force comparisons based on component, component mounting location, and building geographical location, and provides an International Building Code (IBC) quick reference for seismic requirements and equivalent zone force levels.
