Iowa Code r. 875-71.6 - Construction permits-requirements
A construction permit authorizes the temporary, limited use of an elevator for purposes relating to construction or demolition.
(1) Use of the elevator will not begin until
a construction permit has been issued by the department.
(2) Application for a construction permit
will be in the format required by the director and must include all the
information requested by the director and the fee specified by this
chapter.
(3) Upon submission of the
completed application and fee, a state inspector will be scheduled to inspect
the elevator. Construction permits will be issued only if the following
criteria are met:
a. The elevator has been
successfully tested pursuant to the requirements of ASME A17.1, Section
8.11.5.13; and
b. The applicable
requirements of ASME A17.1, Section 5.10, are met.
(4) The construction permit or a copy of the
construction permit will be posted conspicuously in a protective sleeve in the
elevator car.
(5) The construction
permit will expire 120 days after issuance. However, between 90 and 110 days
after issuance and upon submission to the director of sufficient justification,
the fee established by this chapter, and other required information, an
extension of up to 90 days may be granted at the discretion of the
director.
(6) Elevators with a
construction permit but without an operating permit will not be accessible to
the general public.
(7) Failure to
comply with these provisions may result in the revocation of the construction
permit.
(8) An operating permit
will not be issued before construction and an acceptance inspection are
complete.
