NOTE1 Hereinafter, the term “lift” is used instead of the term “elevator”. NOTE2 See Clause5 regarding the use and application of this document. This document is applicable to lifts that are intended to carry persons or persons and goods that can: be located in any permanent and fixed structure or building, except lifts located in means of transport, (e.g. ships); have any rated load, size of load carrying unit and speed, and travel distance and number of landings; be affected by fire in the load-carrying unit (LCU), earthquake, weather, or flood; be foreseeably misused (e.g. overloaded) but not vandalized. This document does not cover all needs of users with disabilities;1 or risks arising from work on lifts under construction, testing, or during alterations and dismantling; use of lifts for fire fighting and emergency evacuation; vandalism; and fire outside the LCU. 1 Although the GESRs specified in this document have been identified and evaluated by risk assessment, not all disabilities or combinations of such disabilities of users have necessarily been addressed.
