Recently, evacuation safety of building resident become the major concern, as the building has been higher and more complicated. Many high-rise multi use buildings are under construction in Korea. Required evacuation time using stairway is longer in high-rise buildings, moreover it is impossible for the disabled to evacuate by using stairway. For this reason the study on the effectiveness of using elevator for evacuation is progressing. This study shows the pressure change in various types of hoistway when elevator is moving. Experiments were performed in 4 different types of hoistway, and showed big difference in pressure change between the type of hoistway. The pressure change in single hoistway that have one car is bigger than that in multi hoistway that have multi cars. The results of this study can be used for the study of elevator piston effect as basic data.

Required evacuation time using stairway is longer in high-rise buildings, moreover it is impossible for the disabled to evacuate by using stairway. For this reason the study on the effectiveness of using elevator for evacuation is being progressed. Elevator shaft flow coefficient is the major factor for the calculation of elevator piston effect. The results of this study can be used for the study of elevator piston effect as basic data. The flow coefficient simulation was performed using FLUENT, commercial CFD program. As a result of the flow coefficient simulation, the coefficient is 0.88 considering the safety factor. This result is verified that the result of experimental study, 0.86 is conservative.

Required evacuation time using stairway is longer in high-rise buildings, moreover it is impossible for the disabled to evacuate by using stairway. For this reason the study on the effectiveness of using elevator for evacuation is progressing. This study shows the flow coefficient of hoistway when elevator is moving. The results of this study can be used for the study of elevator piston effect as basic data. Experiments were performed in 5 different hoistways at 3-story and 2-story buildings. According to the result of flow coefficient experiments, average flow coefficient is 0.954. Considering the $4{\sigma}$ to guarantee 99.99 % reliance, it is 0.86. This result is 3.6 % bigger than 0.83 that Klote and Tamura suggested. It represents that the maximum critical pressure is decreased about 7 % on the same condition of elevator and elevator shaft. When the smoke control performance of high-rise building is evaluated, the result is significant economically by applying a more realistic and less value of elevator piston effect.

In this study, the effects were analyzed by applying the vibration absorption liner into the guide rail bracket as a part of method to reduce the vibration and noise on the high-rise apartment. As the result of vibration absorption liner performance, it was checked that the level of vibration and noise was reduced around 65.49% in the car side and around 90.05% in the counterweight side. Therefore, the vibration absorption effect by the vibration absorption liner of elevator guide rail bracket became fairly good. In case of the vibration absorption liner application, there was an effect on the reduction of 7.26 to 22.22% at hoistway section area, 3,840,000 to 9,780000 KRW at the cost of material and installation by comparing with the damping beam application. Also, in case of the vibration absorption liner application with light weight instead of damping beam with heavy weight, it was thought to become significant effect at preventing the safety from the accidents on installation site.

In the U.S., the pressurization of elevator shaft was developed in 1972 to allow vulnerable people, such as the elderly and weak who could not use escape stairs in case of fire, to evacuate. It is an advantage in terms of space saving by not using vertical ducts. This study drew the problem of the pressurization of elevator shaft based on the existing domestic patents and proposed improvements. The smoke control volume calculation method is proposed by using vertical modeling. Leakage gaps in elevator doors need to be reviewed through experimental data or actual data. The evacuation floor was divided, the openings in the elevator machine room were automatically closed to the fire signal and the relief damper was installed to improve the performance. The improved method functions as the smoke control damper supplying the air flow rather than maintaining the differential pressure. To increase reliability of the research results, the procedure was performed to verify by using Contam.

With the increased interest on quiescent place for residential place, the noise generation from facilities needs to be minimized. One important noise source include sounds from operation of elevators. The elevator operates between floors and generates significantly annoying sounds to the nearby living spaces. It is recognized as the significant contributor inducing noise annoyance to residents. Elevator is supported to the building structure at several locations for movements between floors. In this study, the vibration reduction by use of polymer concrete on the support location was demonstrated. By measuring and comparing the vibration generation when supported on cement and polymer concrete, the noise reduction performance was evaluated. The polymer concrete was made in the form of being inserted into the wall that imitates the hoistway. The impact vibration was induced to the bracket and vibration transfer magnitude was measured. The damping ratio was evaluated through normalization and curve fitting of transient response, and comparison was performed for each resin mixing ratio. By use of polymer concrete, it was possible to reduce the vibration generation in an effect manner without sacrifice on the structural rigidity.

생산산업의 현대화저오ㄷ를 가름할 때 흔히 그 해당공정이 얼만큼의 비율로 자동제어장치가 되어 있느냐 하는것을 척도로 할 만큼 제어공학(Control Engineering)이 일반생산산업에 미치는 영향은 크다고 믿어진다. 이처럼 자동제어화의 인기가 높은것은 단순히 그렇게 함으로서 편리한 것 뿐만아니라, 그 기업의 수익을 증가시키기 때문일 것이다. 기업가의 입장에서 볼때, 자동제어의 결과로 (i)생산속도를 증가시키고, (ii) 규격치로부터의 오차를 줄임으로서 제품의 질을 향상시키고 (iii)생산원료를 절약하여 원가절감을 할 수 있는등의 이점이 있다. 이외에도 일상생활 환경에서 접하는 엘리베이터의 승강제어부터 우주선의 비행제어에 이르기까지 제어의 개념은 현대기술문명의 본질인 것이다. 본란을 통하여, 제어공학자들이 현재 사용하고 있는 설계방법과 앞으로의 발전경향에 대하여 간단히 소개하고, 아울러 학계 및 제어공학자들의 많은 관심을 모으고 있는 누연시스템(Tine-delay system)의 제어문제에 대하여 개략적으로 설명하기로 한다.

Because of ultra-high buildings or deeper underground space, recent buildings have the potential that people who have lack of physical strength collapse before arriving at the emergency exits when catastrophes occur. In case of fire, the way to escape is that first, people take the stairs of the adjacent areas and then use the elevator to the remaining distance by road to escape notice or be safe. For this reason, the skyscrapers guidelines of Seoul for information on the elevator for evacuation has been established. Nevertheless, when designing buildings to install a elevator for evacuation separately is not effective, so passenger elevators installation according to the criteria are encouraged to use as evacuation elevators. However, this does not include detailed design guidelines so far. Therefore, this study was to investigate design method to use the passenger elevator for evacuation according to the domestic law and international installation criteria, and to calculated number of lifts and refuge to use the elevator using by the ELVAC+ and PathFinder evacuation program.
