Create a new American National Standard (ANS): ASME A17.10/CSA B44.10 - 20XX, Escalator Braking Systems	Geraldine Burdeshaw	11/10/19
This Standard provides requirements for the design, construction, materials and testing of escalator braking systems. This Standard covers escalator driving-machine brakes as described in ASME A17.1/CSA B44 Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators.

Revise current ANS: ASME A17.6-20XX - 20XX, Standard for Elevator Suspension, Compensation, and Governor Systems	Nicole Gomez	11/04/19
This Standard covers the means and members of suspension, compensation, and governor systems for elevators within the scope of ASME A17.1/CSAB44. This Standard includes the material properties, design, testing, inspection, and replacement criteria for these means. It includes the requirements for steel wire rope, aramid fiber rope, and noncircular elastomeric coated steel suspension members, and provides direction for future constructions as new technology develops.

Create a new American National Standard (ANS): ASME A17.9/CSA B44.9 - 20XX, Elevator Buffers	Geraldine Burdeshaw	11/08/19
This Standard provides requirements for the design, construction, materials and testing of elevator buffers. This Standard covers buffers designed to stop a descending car or counterweight from travel beyond its normal limit by absorbing and dissipating the kinetic energy of the car or counterweight, including oil buffer and elastomeric buffer. The buffers covered in the Standard are intended for installation in passenger and freight elevator in accordance with ASME A17.1/CSA B44 Safety Code for Elevators and Escalators.

Create a new American National Standard (ANS): ASME B40.300 - 20XX, Digital Instruments	Angel L. Guzman Rodriguez	10/28/19
