Who are we?• CodeDataPlate.com is the trade name of Rearick &

Company, Inc. – Elevator Consulting• CodeDataPlate.com was formed 10 years ago to provide

accurate on-site code information to inspectors when performing inspections.

• Started with just Code Data Plates (still 50% of our business)

• Grown to include – Crosshead Data Plates– Inspection Tags– Other code specific Data Plates, Tags & Signs– Maintenance Control Program assistance & format

• Primary customer: Elevator Contractors


Working Committee Involvement• Existing Installations

– Section 8.7 - Alterations– A17.3 Code for Existing Installations

• Maintenance, Repair & Replacement– Section 8.6

– MCP Task Group

• Inspections– Sections 8.10, 8.11 and Testing parts of 8.6– A17.2 Guide for Inspectors

• Wind Tower Project Team– Hoistway sub-committee


Code Making Process• Inquiry

– Format: Edition and Requirement Number– Assigned to Working Committee to answer– Technical Revision (TN) Developed if needed

• Review and approved by Standards Comm.• Interpretation published• Approved TN’s go Public Review Draft• Finally are published in next Code Edition

Alteration Changes in A17.1-2007, a-08 & b-09 except control

• 8.7.1.7 Adds Canadian (NBCC) Exceptions• 8.7.1.8 Adds Canadian (NBCC) Exceptions• 8.7.2.1.3Editorial correction• 8.7.2.1.4Editorial correction• 8.7.2.7.1Now includes both machine & control spaces• 8.7.2.7.6 Editorial correction• 8.7.2.7.7 Editorial correction• 8.7.2.10.1 Now includes 2.29.2 (4” number inside door)• 8.7.2.14.2(i) Adds requirements for car door or gate• 8.7.2.15.2 Revised Buffer requirements• 8.7.2.17 Editorial correction• 8.7.2.23 Revised Buffer requirements• 8.7.2.25 Editorial correction

Alteration Changes in A17.1-2007, a-08 & b-09 except control

• 8.7.3.15.3 Editorial correction• 8.7.3.19 Editorial correction• 8.7.3.15 Editorial correction• 8.7.3.19 Editorial correction• 8.7.3.22 Editorial correction• 8.7.3.23 Jacks are now stand alone alteration – see slide• 8.7.4.3.7 Editorial correction (travel to rise in about 50 places)• 8.7.5.3 Added Private Residence Requirements• 8.7.5.4 Added Private Residence Requirements

Reason: Many private residences have been converted to convention centers, banquet facilities, museums, etc.; where the elevators are used by the general public or as a Limited-Use/Limited-Application elevator. In these cases, the more stringent safety requirements of ASME A17.1 need to be applied.

• 8.7.6.1 Escalator alteration updated• 8.7.6.2 Moving Walk alteration upgraded

(a)(a)


Note: These 3 requirements are often mixed up.

TN 03-1712Revise A17.1 requirements 8.7.3.23.1, 8.7.3.23.2 and 8.7.3.23.3 as follows:

8.7.3.23.1 Hydraulic Jack. Where the alteration involves the installation of a hydraulic jack, it is installed,altered or replaced it shall conform to 3.18.

8.7.3.23.2 Plungers. Where a new plunger is installed as part of an alteration or an existing plunger isaltered, it shall conform to 3.18.1.2 and 3.18.2.

8.7.3.23.3 Cylinders. Where a cylinder is installed, replaced as part of an alteration, altered, or sleeved, itshall conform to 3.18.3. If the plunger is not equipped with a stop ring conforming to 3.18.4.1, theinstallation shall also conform to 3.18.1.2 and 3.18.2.

Reason:Requirement 8.6.3.10 identifies replacement of jacks, plungers, and cylinders as an alteration and referredto 8.7.3.23. This proposed change clarifies the need to comply with existing requirements even though thereplacement is not “part of an alteration”. (See new proposed definition in TN 02-3899 for “Alteration aspart of – A repair and/or replacement that is included with other work that is classified as an alteration”)


Alteration Changes in A17.1-2007, a-08 & b-09 for control

• 8.7.2.27.8 and 8.7.3.31.11 AddedElectrical Protective Devices. Where there is an alteration to or addition of an electrical protective device, it shall conform to 2.26.2 for that device.

• 8.7.2.27.3 POWER• 8.7.2.27.4 CONTROL REPLACEMENT• 8.7.2.27.5 MOTION• 8.7.2.27.6 OPERATION• 8.7.3.31.4 POWER• 8.7.3.31.5 CONTROL REPLACEMENT• 8.7.3.31.6 MOTION• 8.7.3.31.7 OPERATION

Control changes have been made to all 3 editionsand more are coming!

Hydro

Traction


Note: These 4 requirements are often mixed up.

Control Changes

• Power – Supply to controller is altered in type, phase or voltage (not a new Main Line)

• Controller is replaced w/o change to Motion or Operation – could be a relay to microprocessor

• Type of Motion - such as MG to SSD or VVVF

• Type of Operation – Car Switch to Automatic


Note: Hydro control change may not require change to fire service.

Control Changes

• 8.7.2.28 Emergency Operations• 8.7.3.31.8 Emergency OperationsRationale: To clarify the requirements when installing firefighters’ emergency

operation on existing controllers.

Section 8.62007 vs. a-2008 & b-2008

Recommendation:Mark-up errors in 8.6 and

Don’t replace the pages in 8.11until an errata is published

(most errors were in moving of tests to 8.6)


Challenges Facing InspectorsNew in 2000 and later editions

• NYC is about ½ the US Elevator population• Used A17 code as Modified by RS-18 for 30+ years• Now under A17.1-2000 with a-’02 & b-’03

– New numbering system– Harmonization with B-44

• Now has added Private Inspectors• Hefty fines for non-compliance• Lots of mis-information about:

– Adopted Codes & Effective Dates– Code Data Plate Requirements– Required Signage– Inspection Tags


Challenges Facing InspectorsNew in 2000 and later editions

• The Inspection Community is stepping up• Industry Groups are pitching in

– NAESA is holding QEI classes– ECNY is having Code Seminars

• A17.1-1996/A17.1-2000 cross-reference tool

• CodeDataPlate.com solutions:– Code Research – Department of Buildings Liaison– Standard & Custom Code Data Plates– Replacement Plates & Required Signage– Code Data Plate Kits & Inspection Tags– MCP assistance and format consulting
