Vertical Transportation Analysis

We provide comprehensive vertical transportation (VT) analysis services to ensure efficient, safe, and code-compliant movement of people within buildings. Our studies support architects, developers, and MEP designers in optimizing elevator and escalator systems for performance, capacity, and reliability.
Using advanced simulation and analytical tools, we model elevator traffic flow, waiting times, and handling capacities to evaluate performance under various occupancy scenarios. Our analysis includes:

  • Traffic simulation and performance modelling for peak-hour and evacuation conditions
  • Elevator group configuration and zoning optimization for high-rise and mixed-use developments
  • Assessment of passenger handling capacity, waiting intervals, and service quality
  • Escalator placement and flow coordination with lobby and egress circulation layouts

Our expertise ensures compliance with international standards (such as CIBSE Guide D, EN 81, and ISO 4190 and other local codes) while aligning with architectural design intent and project functionality.
We also conduct design validation and peer reviews for VT systems, assessing alignment between traffic forecasts, design layouts, and equipment specifications. The result — optimized, reliable, and energy-efficient vertical mobility tailored to the building’s usage profile and occupancy dynamics.
