Whether you live in a big city or a small town, you will come across companies specializing in setting up elevators. An elevator plays a very important role in a building, office, and commercial establishments. Imagine what would happen if your apartment is on the 13th floor of a building and the elevator is not working. Or, the only elevator in a multi-storied hospital stops functioning. In a lot of ways, an elevator is the lifeline of a structure that is divided into multiple floors.

Keith walking into the holding cell greeting all the regulars by name while Lance is sobbing lamenting that his life is over and his future is ruined (they were like. Trespassing or some shit he’s going to be fine)

lance: (actively dry heaving in the corner, on the verge of a panic attack as he imagines having a permanent record)(actually what does a permanent record even look like?)(omg is he going to have to go to COURT? like in JUDGE JUDY?)

keith: remy, this is lance. lance, this is remy, she’s my favorite alcoholic :)

#voltron #klance #honestly I imagine they got caught trespassing while ghost hunting #if they’re in Texas then they will most likely get a full on misdemeanor on their record. Texas is very big on property rights. #trespassing can quickly elevate to criminal charges in texas it is actually very serious. do not trespass in texas. #meanwhile in Maine trespassing can be just an infraction & not added to your record #like sure they're teenagers so they could get their records sealed or expunged when they're 18. but like. the garrison would know. not good #sorry i just like talking about the law #speaking of which let me go on a tangent #i do think keith frequently gets charged with trespassing. at his own shack in the desert. #and so now he is Really good at juvenile law specifically because he is constantly arguing with cops #keith: this is not trespassing. my dad owned this property & he died unmarried without a will. #keith: i am literally his child and i inherited this land after his death YOU CAN'T ARREST ME FOR TRESPASSING ON MY OWN PROPERTY. #cop: okay well the house is all burned down it's a safety hazard #keith: I AM NOT IN THE HOUSE I AM IN THE SHACK WHICH MEETS MINIMUM SAFETY REQUIREMENTS. GET FUCKED. #cop: okay but you're out after curfew-- #keith: is this a game to you? drag me in front of that judge i DARE you. you want to take the ORPHAN to court over CURFEW? #keith: you want to arrest my parents? WHAT PARENTS? everyone in this county knows me as the son of a hero firefighter. #keith: a hero firefighter who died in the line of duty btw. in case you forgot. since i'm an ORPHAN who has no one who CARES about CURFEW. #keith: my dad is dead my mom is gone my brother disappeared in space im 0 for 3 parents-wise. drag me before a judge. make my fucking night #sometimes i answer an ask or make a post specifically so i can do my own separate thing in the tags #i just like talking about law. i'm so excited for law school u guys #keith #lance #lance: (freaking out) #keith: (relaxed because he knows a really good lawyer who specializes in juvenile law) #shitpost #ask #anonymous #otp: we are a good team

Rory's first session with steadiness training and she's crushing it!

#dogblr #rory borealis #my face #bird dog training #so bird dogs need a really strong WOAH (stop moving and stay) for safety #and also to help encourage pointing in younger dogs (you woah them when they have the scent of the bird before the bird flushes) #ive never taught woah before so i read a bunch of books and watched a bunch of videos #one of the first steps is steadiness (basically impulse control) #so were using my elevated step and some kibbles and a flat collar with a tab leash #basically once your dog understands the board you can start #hold the tab loosely (no tension in the leash but enough that you can stop them from going after the snack) #throw the snack and dont let the dog go for it (hold leash and feed snacks on the board) #make sure theres no tension in the leash before you release #the dog should be standing there of their own will not the leash stopping them #its really hard so make sure the dog is exercised and calm before you start esp the first time #and only do short short sessions #and reward HEAVILY #there are faster more old fashioned ways to teach it #but shes a baby and i dont mind going slow so this is what im doing #also - look at my face i was so unsure if she would stay 😂

This is just something else honestly.

#Everything ‘elevates’ when they’re around each other guys #They have so much ‘tension’ #They’re an ‘odd couple’ #‘Wow there’s something still here’ and what is that? :) #‘​Something alive’ okay okay okay #Not only is this lawrusso—It’s zacchio #They make it SO hard to not post a bunch of rpf #Because I can say a lot #Like how Billy giggles and fidgets like a schoolgirl whenever Ralph says something with even a smidge of humor #The way Ralph always entertains whatever he says. He seems relaxed #They way they both look at each other #Billy is intense with it. You want to crawl into his lap or something? #Anyway Ralph got pushed into a wall and his dick got sucked like a treat after this #zacchio #lawrusso #nsft #safety first

whoever designed this place so the break room is up in front on a 2nd level needs to pay for that crime

#p #currently walking thru this whole big ass busy store. no one look at me or ill die thx #the other locations have em in the back n dont even have the dumb 2nd story #ty possibly hazardous elevator i owe u ny life #(for awhile there was a sign on it that it didnt pass some safety inspection but they moved the sticker slightly away from the door #so. assuming ill live 👍 so far so good #still havw a bunch of shame over using it when i can like physically walk n am a fat person :/ rip #it is nice tho im exhausted n hurting a lot. bleh

#kinda can’t stand ppl who put romance on such a high pedestal in their conception of relatio ships #like firstable relationships shouldn’y have a hierarchy… it’s a social orbit/sphere/circle/WHATEVER #ALL OF THEM ARE IMPORTANT AND NOURISHING AND MEANINGFUL!!!!! #and second i hate when ppl r like ‘omg i want a romantic partner bcos they will see me for me and love me all the same’ #like…. do u not have friends. omg 😭 #out of all the ppl in my life i think my friends know the extent of the worst parts of myself n the fact that they chose to stay #i also yearn for romance but i easily get so irritated when ppl see it as such a high elevation of love compared to friendship/family/etc #maybe i’m just inexperienced or whatever but i would also hate to see my romantic partner as the only one who can provide me w comfort #and safety and affection and everything else in between :/ like it’s sooo off #moi

Tell us all about the hollow sidewalks

Yes!!!

Putting it under a cut because it got long lol.

So here is the wikipedia article for Vaulted Sidewalks. It is very short, and basically boils down to "vaulted sidewalks are sidewalks that have a hollow area underneath."

Which is, yes, the definition. But they're very cool!

Basically, there's two things that tend to be under a hollow sidewalk, and those are vaults and tunnels. Vaults are little rooms that extend under the sidewalk that are simply connected to the building, whereas tunnels, obviously, go somewhere else. Both were very popular before cars became a big thing!

Most hollow sidewalks only go for a few streets or so if they're tunnels, but sometimes you can get a whole underground city! For example, after the Great Seattle Fire in Seattle, WA, USA, the city leaders decided to just raise the whole city about a story, but a lot of people continued to use the original streets and entrances in addition to the new entrances on the higher level. They only stopped using the underground cityscape because twenty years later, the city condemned the lower levels due to concerns about bubonic plague. I've heard that some of it is now available for guided tours.

A lot of hollow sidewalks were built before electricity, which means that they also have really cool Vault Lights. Some of them were just grates with glass in them to let in the light, but a lot of them had prisms to throw light into a wider array and fill the tunnel with light despite the small porthole. If you click through to the link, it's got a fascinating gallery at the bottom.

[ID in alt text] [image source]

Here's a vault light from Philadelphia! The bubbles in and around the star are small glass prisms that cast light in the hollow below.

[ID in alt text] [image source]

This is what a vault light looks like from below--this one only has five of the prisms still uncovered and functional, but that's still a lot of light!

Unfortunately, most of the hollow sidewalks in the US get dug up and filled with sand, because the weight of modern cars is simply too much for the hollow sidewalks to handle, and we prefer to bow to the whims of the automobile industry as they make bigger and heavier cars and trucks, so the cool underground sidewalks and cities have to go.

But!

That's not true in star wars. The GFFA has flying cars and hover technology for all of their heavy transportation needs, so I like to think that they have extremely walkable cities and many places have hollow sidewalks. The possibilities are infinite!

Mandalore? Hollow, reinforced sidewalks. The tunnels of Sundari double as bomb shelters due to the planet's violent past.

Hoth/Tatooine/Jakku/Ordo Plutonia? Underground tunnels are actually more popular than aboveground, due to the elements.

Corellia? Hollow sidewalks have a whole different city underneath. Corellia is barely respectable on the surface, but underground they drop even the veneer.

Coruscant? Trick question! The whole planet is about seventy thousand layers of hollow sidewalks. There's vault lights on Coruscant that haven't had daylight to give to the level below them in a thousand years, but prisms are still very popular in artificial lighting because electricity is expensive and you have to scatter that shit as far as it will go.

Considering that there are also a whole bunch of alien species who prefer to be underground, I think that pretty much any medium-sized town or larger would have a robust underground element. And when the weather sucks, wouldn't it be nice to have the option to go wherever you were going, but in a tunnel so you don't have to get wet/be hot/get blown away by the wind/etc? My university had underground tunnels that connected all the buildings, but students weren't allowed to use them, and every time I was walking the long mile between my first class and my second class in -10F (-23C) weather, the tunnels were literally all I could think about I was so mad lmao.

If you want to know more about hollow sidewalks/vault lights, I highly recommend clicking on all the links in the post, and also checking out the book The Tunnels Under Our Feet by Tracy Beach [B&N link]. The book is primarily about hollow sidewalks in Colorado, but it does also have a few chapters where it talks about hollow sidewalks all over the US, like the ones in Seattle.

#asks #chaos-is-my-lifeblood #thanks for the ask! #i highly recommend researching hollow sidewalks they're cool #and the book is a great introduction to them #tune in next time when i rage about walkable cities and pedestrian-centric design lmao #it's MY star war and I get to plan the cities #paw notes #i can also bitch about cars and public transportation for days #tbh i'm surprised that people still talk to me because i DO bitch about cars and public transportation all the time #but i do think we should get rid of 90% of vehicles and bring back hollow sidewalks #this time with elevators so they are more accessible #i want to walk to the grocery store in safety and comfort when there's four feet of snow outside #lol #also could you imagine how pretty the vault lights would be on mandalore #like have you seen the stained glass in that one satine episode? They HAVE art! imagine doing vault lights like that! #prisms that when the light shines through make pictures #like maybe on one of the main streets they have vault lights that make illustrations of important moments in mandalorian history #galidraan au #will that ever come up in the story probably not but #listen. listen. #i am inventing art history for mandalore #i am giving them vault lights and beskar glass and shiny things #i am putting into star wars everything i wish i could put into public infrastructure of my area lmao

Benefits of Opting for Top-notch Elevator Consulting Companies

Elevators are essential components of contemporary building infrastructure that allow for smooth vertical transit in low- to medium-rise structures. Although hydraulic lifts have been a mainstay in this field for a long time, new technologies and the introduction of elevator services are quickly changing the scene.

Enhanced Efficiency and Reliability

Modernizing lifts gives structures more dependability and efficiency. Modern lifts provide enhanced safety standards, decreased downtime, and smoother operations due to the integration of cutting-edge technology and optimized workflows.

Improved Safety Standards

Safety is the main component of all vertical transportation systems. Elevator upgrades are not only innovative but also require the installation of safe features like emergency brakes, fire detection systems, and door sensors that are in line with industry standards and regulations.

Enhanced energy efficiency

As sustainability is a top priority for building owners and operators nowadays, energy efficiency has become one of the most relevant issues. Modernized elevators apply energy-saving components such as controllers, motors, and other state-of-the-art systems that produce higher levels of efficiency and yet maintain high performance. 

Seamless Functioning of Smart Technology Integration

AI and IoT integration within elevators is an incredible trend in lift technology. Elevator modernization involves the implementation of such technological features as Internet of Things devices, smart prediction instruments, and remote monitoring mechanisms that empower real-time diagnostics and preventive maintenance.

Selection of the Right Elevator Consulting Partner

In the midst of so many choices, it is critical for you to choose the firm that will provide the best elevator consulting services and better outcomes. You must opt for elevator consulting companies with a proven track record, vast industry experience, and a dedication to customers. Prefer the elevator consultants who are creative, diligent, and responsible, and who are quite keen on solving clients' problems.

Conclusion

The benefits of quality elevator services and technological upgrading are various. Along with the possibilities to become more productive and secure, elevators are meant to advance to smart technologies and utilize sustainable solutions. They are a factor that creates the future of vertical travel. Through collaboration with a superior elevator consultant, building tenants and operators it is possible to start a path that may be a turning point in mobility service delivery in buildings.

ELEVATOR SAFETY GEAR

Elevator safety gear, directly related to the overspeed governor. In other words, the safety gear is a device that allows the elevator to brake when the speed governor detects that the elevator is overspeeding during operation. The overspeed governor is the commander, and the elevator safety gear is the executor.

Types of Elevator Safety Gear

Progressive Safety Gear

Progressive safety gear is mainly suitable for elevator projects with a speed more than 0.63m/s.

Instantaneous Safety Gear

Instantaneous safety gear is mainly suitable for elevator projects with a speed less than 0.63m/s

The Difference Between Progressive Elevator Safety Gear And Instantaneous Elevator Safety Gear

There are two types of safety gears: instantaneous elevator safety gear and progressive elevator safety gear. Among them, the stopping distance of the instantaneous safety gear is relatively short, generally only a few centimeters to tens of centimeters. If the rated running speed of the elevator is relatively fast, the damage to the guide rail during braking and stopping is also relatively large, Therefore, the instantaneous safety gear is generally used on the low-speed elevator with the rated running speed V≤0.63 m/s. However, the braking process of the progressive safety gear is relatively gentle, and the damage to the guide rail is relatively small when braking and stopping, but the braking distance is relatively long and the structure is more complicated, which is mostly suitable for various elevators with rated running speed V≥1.0 m/s.

Elevator plunges that you witness in movies are all plotted and designed. It’s factually incorrect. Setting foot inside the lift means trouble-free vertical movement
