Produktbeschreibung

Vertical transportation systems (elevators, lifts, escalators and passenger conveyors) are used in almost all buildings of more than a few storeys high. Traffic design and control need to be planned carefully as the costs of under or over provision are considerable. In this book, the subject is covered in four sections.
