The increase in the number of high-rise buildings has a great impact on fire prevention and rescue. One of the solutions that requires strict technical requirements is the fire elevator.
Elevators are specified in the category of machines, equipment, materials and substances with strict requirements on occupational safety and hygiene. Therefore, the inspection of elevators before being put into use and periodically is imperative. The most basic information about inspection will be right in the section below.
The Ministry of Construction has issued Circular 03/2021/TT-BXD stipulating national standards on apartment buildings, including some additional requirements for elevators in apartment buildings. The Circular takes effect from July 5, 2021.
Green growth and sustainable development have become the national policy of many countries. One of the leading solutions is to save energy. In that trend, elevator manufacturers are constantly improving and applying high technology to reduce electricity consumption in their products.
Regulations on Fire and Safety require that buildings must be equipped with fire elevators and rescue means. In each fire compartment of buildings with a height of >28m, an elevator shall be arranged to meet the requirements for transporting firefighters and means (as specified in Section 5.14 QCVN 06:2010/BXD).
