This begins a practice Double Deck section — general tips for creating large, complex elevator groups efficiently.
Prerequisites
Sloppy Mode and the Performance Profiler are understood.
Steps
1.) The 9-step recommended workflow. For creating large and complex elevator groups:
Workflow Step 1: Create a project with few floors
Workflow Step 2: Exchange basic components
Workflow Step 3: Modify necessary parameters
Workflow Step 4: Adapt car and counterweight position
Workflow Step 5: Add shaft groups
Workflow Step 6: Separator beam / shaft wall
Workflow Step 7: Adapt and position related components
Workflow Step 8: Use Sloppy Mode
Workflow Step 9: Increase the number of floors.
2.) Create the double deck practice project. Using the Shaft Wizard, create a project with:
5 floors, typical floor-to-floor distance 3000 mm
Consider travel: No
Traction elevator, 1:1 roping
24 persons / 1800 kg
Machine room: Top
Car roping: top (without pulley), with CW safety gear
Counterweight roping: rear, top (without pulley)
Sheet templates: not necessary
Car size: width 2000 mm, depth 1700 mm
Counterweight size: thickness 270 mm, height 4500 mm, distance between guides 1450 mm
Shaft size: width 2500 mm, depth 2500 mm
Entrances: front on all floors
Speed: 6 m/s
Adjust the rail bracket geometry
Save the project as LDTrainingSampleDouble.ld3.
3.) Workflow Step 1 — prepare your views. Prepare a Plan view, a Section view from Left, and a Section view from Front.
Result
You know the 9-step recommended workflow for building large elevator groups efficiently, a double deck practice project exists, and its views are prepared.
