Acceleration and Velocity
The total amount of time it takes for a traction elevator car to start, move, and stop a given amount of distance at different elevator speeds can be generalized from the table below.
A typical traction elevator accelerates at <3.5fps for <= 400fps, and >4.5fps for > 500fpm.
