Formulas Used:
Peak Hour Traffic (Persons) = Total Building Population × (Peak Hour Factor / 100)
Estimated Daily Total Traffic (Persons/Day) = Total Building Population × Average Daily Trips per Person
Where:
- Total Building Population: The total number of people regularly occupying or visiting the building (e.g., employees, residents, average daily visitors).
- Peak Hour Factor: The estimated percentage of the Total Building Population using vertical transport during the busiest hour.
- Average Daily Trips per Person: The average number of times each person is expected to use vertical transport per day.
