Mechanical Transportation-Vertical
In this course we will learn about Mechanical Transportation-Vertical.
An important Building service system mainly designed to facilitate the circulation majorly for the high rise structures is Mechanical transport systems, these are equipment bases systems that need Electric Energy to run. The equipment efficiently moves people between floors (levels, decks) of a building, vessel, or any other structure.
In modern times, Along with the provision of the system’s most important criteria are the speed of this equipment, the mechanical systems provided inside these equipment update/ get advanced each day.
Need for Mechanical Transportation services:
To circulate People or Goods in a Building vertically or horizontally at various levels. It can be to transport/ circulate people in a residential apartment or can be food in a hotel building or can be Heavy goods in a factory building. To save the time of travel and save on physical exhaustion that happens while using staircases etc for circulation in a building with more story height.
It provides comfort for the elderly, allows them to cover more distance in less time. At the same time, allows heavy loads to be transported easily.
Types of Mechanical Transportation services
Vertical and Horizontal
PARAMETERS FOR CHOOSING MECHANICAL SYSTEMS:
Be it a vertical system or Horizontal, important parameters for choosing the system for circulation are
Amount of Load to be carried/circulated
Distance to travel
Building typology and its need.
Direction of circulation
Expected travel time
