A method and apparatus are provided for monitoring a suspension member that supports an elevator car and experiences bend cycles as the suspension member facilitates movement of the elevator car between a plurality of door zones. The method and apparatus determine: a number of times the elevator car passes or stops at each of the plurality of door zones; a number of bend cycles experienced by at least one section of the suspension member based on the number of times the elevator car passes or stops at each of the plurality of door zones; and a condition of the suspension member based on a relationship between a determined number of bend cycles and at least one predetermined criterion.
