23、ent.When provisions of this type C standard are different from those which are stated in type A or B standards, theprovisions of this type C standard take precedence over the provisions of the other standards, for lifts that havebeen designed and built according to the provisions of this type C stan

24、dard.0.2 PrinciplesIn drawing up this standard the following have been used:a) the Working Group based its activities on a resolution (CEN/TC 10/1995/7) which added the issue ofaccessibility to the work programme of CEN/TC 10, namely the necessity of formulating requirements for theaccessibility to

25、lifts for persons including persons with disability.This resolution was the result of a mandate given to CEN as mentioned in the Foreword. It was decided that itwould cover the design and construction of cars etc. in such a way that their features would not obstruct orimpede access and use by disabl

26、ed people;b) the Working Group was composed of representatives of the European Disability Forum, NationalStandardisation Institutes and the Lift Industry. Data taken into account were:demographic developments in Europe;the tendency of living independently and its consequences;the need for accessibil

27、ity of buildings;the recognition of the existence of a variety of disabilities with different solutions on spatial andorientational levels;the combat of discrimination based on disability and age as mentioned in the non-discrimination clause(art 6a) of the Treaty of Amsterdam of the European Union.T

28、he population of Europe is ageing and the prevalence of disability, including disability associated with the ageingprocess, is increasing. Older people and people with disabilities at present are estimated to number some 80million people a large and growing proportion of the European Union populatio

29、n. The changing demographypresents both opportunities and challenges for the Union. The economic, social and cultural potential of olderpeople and people with disabilities is underexploited at present. However there is a growing recognition that societyneeds to exploit this potential for the economi

30、c and social benefit of society generally.The work has led to this standard on the accessibility to lifts for persons, including persons with disability.General information on accessibility is given in annex A;c) this standard does not only address the essential safety requirements of the Lift Direc

31、tive, but additionallystates minimum rules for the accessibility to lifts for persons including persons with disability. There may be insome countries regulations for the level of suitability of lifts which cannot be ignored. Typical clauses affectedby this are those defining minimum sizes of cars ;

32、EN 81-70:2003 (E)5d) this European Standard describes three sizes of lifts offering different levels of accessibility to wheelchairusers. The degree of accessibility and usability is provided by dimensions, spatial and technical criteria (seethe European Concept for Accessibility referred to in Bibl

33、iography).Further, this European Standard defines the design provisions for the lift and its user interface for the differentstages of usage under normal operation.NOTE Each Member State can, according to its social requirements and economical situation, select the appropriate size oflift from Table

34、 1 as the minimum for a given type of building and define the application by law.0.3 AssumptionsIntensive studies have been made on the different categories of disabilities to establish related hazards and theirrisks.The Standard Rules of the Equalization of opportunities for persons with disabiliti

35、es adopted by the United NationsGeneral Assembly at its 48thsession on 20 December 1993 (resolution 48/96) has also been considered. Therequirements in this standard have been drawn up accordingly.0.4 NegotiationsIt is assumed that negotiations have been made for each contract between the customer a

36、nd the supplier/installerabout:a) the intended use of the lift;b) temporary activation of features of the lift;c) environmental conditions;d) civil engineering problems;e) other aspects related to the place of installation.EN 81-70:2003 (E)61 ScopeThis European Standard specifies the minimum require

37、ments for the safe and independent access and use of liftsby persons, including persons with the disabilities mentioned in annex B, Table B.1.This European Standard covers lifts with minimum car dimensions according to Table 1 and provided with cardoors and landing doors constructed as automatic pow

38、er operated horizontally sliding doors.This European Standard considers accessibility to lifts for persons using wheelchairs with maximum overalldimensions defined in EN 12183:1999 and EN 12184:1999.This European Standard also deals with the additional technical requirements to minimise the hazards

39、listed inclause 4 that arise during the operation of lifts intended to be accessible to disabled users.NOTE This standard can be used as guidance for upgrading existing lifts in line with the recommendation of the EuropeanCommission dated 8thof June, 1995 (95/216/EC) concerning improvements to safet

40、y of existing lifts.2 Normative referencesThis European Standard incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications.
