ASME Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators
The ASME Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators sets essential standards to ensure these systems are designed, built, maintained, and operated safely. It covers aspects like structural integrity, emergency systems, safety devices, and regular inspections to prevent accidents and protect users. The code helps ensure that elevators and escalators function reliably and safely throughout their lifespan, reducing the risk of failures or injuries. Compliance with these standards is mandated by law in many regions, promoting consistent safety practices across buildings and public spaces.
