Doesn’t the current elevator code already allow for new technology?
ASME A17.1/CSA B44 is based on prescriptive language to address technology that has already been introduced. Nevertheless, the need for a method to introduce new technology is recognized in ASME A17.1/CSA B44, but past editions did not provide for a uniform structured approach for Authorities Having Jurisdiction. This process was inefficient and cumbersome and it deterred the introduction of alternate technology in North America as there was no defined process that was universally acceptable to Authorities Having Jurisdiction.
