Elevator planning is a key factor for high-rise building construction and building design. Up-peak load is a common phenomenon in building elevator design and operation. For example, in the morning, passengers want to take an elevator to their working floors. Up-peak is often used as the critical traffic period for elevator planning in a building. Two parameters are usually used to plan elevators: the elevator’s round-trip time and average waiting time. To easily and accurately obtain the values of these two parameters during up-peak load, we propose an agent-based discrete-event simulation model. The validation of the baseline model is undertaken using deterministic data, after which the model is expanded to the random situation. Then, we use an event to define any arrival pattern of passengers. Finally, we describe various model elements to carry out simulation in other cases. A number of practical examples show that the model can be used as an elevator planning tool for building design and construction.

电梯规划是高层建筑施工和建筑设计的关键因素。高峰负载是建筑物电梯设计和运行中的常见现象。例如，在早上，乘客想乘电梯去他们的工作楼层。高峰期通常用作建筑物电梯规划的关键交通时段。通常使用两个参数来规划电梯：电梯的往返时间和平均等待时间。为了在高峰负载期间轻松，准确地获得这两个参数的值，我们提出了一种基于代理的离散事件仿真模型。使用确定性数据进行基线模型的验证，然后将模型扩展到随机情况。然后，我们使用事件定义乘客的任何到达方式。最后，我们描述了各种模型元素以在其他情况下进行仿真。大量实际示例表明，该模型可用作建筑设计和施工的电梯规划工具。
