Car Park Design

Parking is the thing we need to consider in planning the building and can not be considered simple, and now become a new phenomenon, because parking is the placement of vehicles that often encountered problems in the transportation system. In many countries both in big cities and developing cities always face parking problems, especially for 4-wheeled vehicles.

Standard parking facilities are a guideline for determining a plot size (stall) according to various forms of supply. The use of standard parking facilities is required because of the absence of markers from parking lots in the study area. So to determine the number of parking plots in the study area is based on the standard. Free parking space is provided in the lateral and longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The lateral free space is set when the door of the vehicle is opened, measured from the outer end of the door to the adjacent vehicle body. This free space is provided so that there is no collision between the vehicle door and the vehicle parked beside it when passengers get off the vehicle. Elongated direction free space is provided in front of the vehicle to avoid collisions with walls or vehicles passing by lanes, aisles. The lateral free distance is taken at 5 cm and the longitudinal direction of free distance is 30 cm. The width of the door openings is a function of the characteristics of vehicle users who utilize parking facilities. For example, the width of the employee office door opening will be different from the width of the visitor's door opening for the shopping center.
