This document is intended to reflect Navy policy regarding design and construction of elevators. In addition, these requirements compliment non-governmental standards such as those published by ASME and NFPA. This document has been developed to assist architects and engineers in the proper design of Navy facility elevators. Because elevators are complex multi-disciplined products, guidance is needed to consolidate the Navy elevator criteria and help the architectural and engineering disciplines understand their roles in elevator design.  \n1-2 Applicability. The requirements of this document apply to all elevators in Navy facilities.  \n1-3 References. Applicable references are listed in each chapter.  \n1-4 Content and Format. This guidance is arranged by design disciplines, and within each design discipline the chapter is arranged by the major elevator component. This arrangement serves three purposes; (1) allows easy and ready access to elevator requirements needed by each designer; (2) allows a checklist format for the designer to assure all requirements have been met;(3) allows the designer in charge of the overall facility to understand the roles of each of his architects and engineers by providing a tool for coordination of the design effort.  \nCHAPTER 2  \nARCHITECTURAL  \nELEVATOR DESIGN GUIDE  \n2-1 Design Reference Documents  \n2-1.1 Design elevator, hoistway, and machine room in accordance with the current versions of the following reference documents:  \nADA/ABA-American with Disabilities Act (ADA) Accessibility Guide Lines for Building And Facilities; Architectural Barriers Act (ABA) Accessibility Guide Lines.  \nADAAG - American Disabilities Act Accessibility Guide Lines  \nASME A17.1, - American Society of Mechanical Engineers Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators.  \nASME A17.2.1, - Inspector’s Manual for Electric Elevators.  \nASME A17.2.2, - Inspector’s Manual for Hydraulic Elevators.  \nASME A17.2.3, - Inspector’s M","cbCaioUO9fXhrWqW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioUO9fXhrWqW","pdf",182417,31,"English","# Introduction\n## Purpose and Scope\n## Applicability\n## References\n## Content and Format\n# Architectural Elevator Design Guide\n## Design Reference Documents\n## General Design Guidance\n# Structural Elevator Design Guide\n# Mechanical Elevator Design Guide\n# Electrical Elevator Design Guide\n# Specifications Elevator Design Guide\n# Fire Protection Elevator Design Guide\n## Design Reference Document\n## Design Requirements\n## NAVFAC Elevator Fire Protection Summary\n## Fire Resistant Construction","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose and scope of the NAVFAC Elevator Design Guide?\",\"answer\":\"It reflects Navy policy for the design and construction of elevators and consolidates Navy elevator criteria for architects and engineers.
