Design and Construction of a Conventional Elevator
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 7
Abstract
This paper is about the design and construction of an elevator. Elevator is a device that efficiently moves people or goods vertically between floors of a building, vessel, or other structures. They are generally powered by electric motors that either drive traction cables or counterweight systems like a hoist, or pump hydraulic fluid, to raise a cylindrical piston in the form of a jack. During the industrial era, the development of elevators was led by the need for movement of raw materials including coal and lumber from the hillsides. The technology developed by these industries and the introduction of steel beam construction worked together to provide the passengers freight elevators in use today. The construction and installation of other systems of elevator in existence are quite expensive compared to the conventional system. This research work was aimed at developing an elevator that does not use the hydraulic system but more to the conventional system in order to save cost in construction, installation and maintenance.
