The seminar discusses the challenges of providing elevator pressurization in tall buildings. ASHRAE TC 9.12 defines a Tall Building as at least 300 feet tall. The background and outline of code requirements, for the systems are presented by one speaker. Another speaker describes design features including calculation means for pressurization airflow and pressure differential. This speaker also describes the challenges in achieving these values while allowing the elevator to operate. The final speaker presents a case study and lessons learned.
