Abstract: The application relates to a method for creating a framework or truss dataset of an escalator or moving walkway using a computer program. In this method, client-specific configuration data are collected, a type-specific, two-dimensional layout is selected, and this layout is adapted in terms of the conveyor height in accordance with the configuration data. In addition, the guideway of the adapted layout is checked using division sections and the layout is transformed into a subdivided two-dimensional layout. The latter is overlaid with fields of defined structure, wherein the resulting overlaid layout serves as a starting point for arranging profile bar datasets in the three-dimensional space.
