Vertical transport refers to the movement of people or goods between different levels of a building or structure. This is commonly achieved through devices such as elevators, escalators, and lifts. These systems are essential in high-rise buildings, shopping malls, and airports, allowing for efficient access to various floors. The design and operation of vertical transport systems focus on safety, speed, and convenience. Elevators can be hydraulic or traction-based, while escalators provide a continuous flow of movement. Proper maintenance and adherence to safety standards are crucial to ensure the reliability of these transport systems in everyday use.
