🪜 ASME A17.1 / EN 115 (32"/40" Step Width, 100 FPM, 6,000-9,000 Persons/Hr)

Commercial Escalator Capacity Calculator

Size heavy-duty commercial and transit escalators (30° and 35° incline angles with 32" / 40" step widths) under ASME A17.1 & EN 115: calculate theoretical passenger throughput (6,000 to 9,000 persons/hour at 100 FPM), calculate emergency brake stopping distance (limiting deceleration to <0.1g to prevent passenger falls during stops), and escalator contracting profits.
