USE CASES FOR VERTICAL TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM IN BUILDING:

Our vertical transportation services have been successful in a variety of building types and projects, including:

1. High-rise buildings:
   
   Effective vertical mobility is a crucial element in the design and construction of tall buildings. One World Trade Center in New York, Shanghai Tower, Burj Khalifa in Dubai, Kingdom Tower in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, and the Empire State Building’s green retrofit project in New York are just a few of the recent major projects that have used their implementation.
   
   TÜV SÜD has the honour of providing vertical transportation consulting on some of the most famous structures in the world, including the Shard in London and the Burj al Arab in Dubai and recently, the KL118 (second tallest building in the world) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. TÜV SÜD evaluates installed lifts according to EN81 requirements to optimize vertical transport systems within buildings.
2. Residential towers and apartments:
   
   All high-rise buildings must have a vertical transportation system to provide efficient access to all areas of the structure. Elevators (lifts), escalators, travelators, and stairs are vertical transportation systems that allow for easy vertical movement of people. One of the key success factors for a building’s ability to provide comfort to its occupants is an efficient lift system. We offer sustainable and energy-efficient lift maintenance and service solutions.
3. Hospitals and healthcare facilities
   
   Vertical transportation systems in buildings such as hospitals are more important than anywhere else. Elevators are crucial for transporting medical personnel and patients, as well as for connecting family members and delivering groceries, laundry, and medical supplies. For medical facility owners and users, continuous performance and risk assessment improve accessibility, dependability, and safety. To assist clients in maximising utilisation, lowering lifecycle costs, and determining whether a product needs to be repaired or replaced, TÜV SÜD offers helpful data on usage rates and failures.
4. Shopping malls and retail centres
   
   When consumers are out and about, they want to be able to move easily and get as soon as possible to their next location. The mall’s split levels are connected by escalators and elevators, which also make it simple to transport goods between them. To create a distinctive and aesthetically pleasing atmosphere throughout the store or shopping centre, from the entrance through the merchandise floors, TÜV SÜD offers access solutions for retail stores and shopping malls in various practical designs.
5. Airports and transportation hubs
   
   Effective vertical transportation is essential for ensuring customer satisfaction in the high-traffic environments found in airports and other transportation hubs. There must be dependable elevators and escalators that provide the highest uptime. The effectiveness of vertical transportation in airports was enhanced by TÜV SÜD. The team ensured that design, engineering, and delivery were managed to meet the customer’s expectations with the assistance of local branch operations.
6. Industrial and Manufacturing facilities:
   
   TÜV SÜD provides services for all structures, including commercial, residential, hotel, hospital, transportation terminals, and industrial and manufacturing buildings. Our experts consider the needs and population sizes in all structures, whether low- or high-rise. For instance, in an industrial building, security, cargo delivery, movement, and people must be considered.
