Yep do not assume full capacity, 24/7 operation. For escalators I would consult the manufacturer. The schedule is pretty easy to determine. Not sure if they use more energy with a large people load or not. For elevators you can use the data in the 90.1 Unser's Manual, Table G-L Retail Occupancy for a default schedule. You might also search the archive on the Bldg-Sim list-serve at - http://lists.onebuilding.org/pipermail/bldg-sim-onebuilding.org/ - for discussions on the subject.
