ABSTRACT
The work is devoted to defining solutions for skyscraper office buildings in Warsaw against the background of the latest global technology of vertical communication systems.
For this purpose, the paper presents examples of research by design of four high-rise buildings in Warsaw, which indicate the adopted methodology of developing optimal solutions in the field of elevator service as well as the results of research and finally selected systems. The aim of the study was to achieve the initial criteria for the system's operation. The research was carried out by iterating and varianting various configurations of the system and checking it as the basis for building core solutions. Solutions that met the defined criteria were optimal in terms of building efficiency and rental flexibility. Empirical research and its results are presented against the background of world achievements. The results indicate that the research methodology and the systems used follow the contemporary development of the latest globally present solutions.
