Study Of Multistoried Parking Lot

It is a building which is designed specifically to be for

Automobile
Parking and where there are a number of floors or levels on
which
parking takes place.

Project name : Society Parking Building
Architect :JAAM Sociedad de aquatinters

Basic information :
Location : Leioa, Biscay, Spain.
Area : 26800.0 sqm.
Project Year : 2013

Feature:
The building is approached from rationality, constructive
conception from a prefabricated concrete structure that close
the building: aluminium and polycarbonate.

aluminium and polycarbonate. Society Parking Building

Feature:
• The upper order, with an aluminium façade is
a large prism which cantilevers above the bus
dock creating a waiting shelter with a
translucent blue skylight.
• The volume is in a rectangular parcel with two
overlapping orders,
• the first is an opaque plinth with human scale,
• a big bench in the buses dock with occasional
openings for access of vehicles and people.

Project name : Volkswagen Parking Lot Tower At Autostadt
Architect : HNEE architecten
Basic information :
Type -Public
Founded -Berlin, Germany (May 28, 1937; 80 years ago)
Headquarters - Wolfsburg, Germany
Services - Banking, financing, fleet management, insurance,
Owner - Porsche Automobile Holding SE (52.2%), State of
l lower Saxony(20.0%), Qatar Investment
Divisions - Automotive Division , Financial Services Division

Feature:
• A kind of temporary vertical parking lot at Volkswagen.
• The 48-meter tall silos are composed of glass and galvanized
steel, illuminated by night.
• lifted into position via mechanical arms that rotate and run along a
central beam, moving vehicles in and out of their bays.

Lift (for car)

• World fastest automatic parking system
• Lift speed : 2 meter / sec
• Robotic pallet system mounted on rails
• Using 2 Car shuttles
• Each servicing 180” of the silo
• It takes In 1min and 44sec from the
entrance of the towers to the highest
parking space
• Parking system is based around micro
controller and sensor
• It follows the instruction as the computer
does do

Structural system :
• Steel structure With glass façade
• Galvanized steel

Interior steel structure Steel beam Exterior Glass and steel member
ADVANTAGES OF AUTOMATED SYSTEM ADVANTAGES OF TRADITIONAL SYSTEM

• Parking efficiency off the system is very good 70% • Less parking cost
• Less land requirement • Less parking time consuming
• Vehicle parking and retrieval is very less time Consuming • Comfortable parking system
• High security • The system efficiency of this system is high.
• Easy parking and retrieval • Infrastructural cost is minimum
• Easy to management • Secure against theft
• Less staff requirement
• Overalls less parking cost

DISADVANTAGES OF AUTOMATED SYSTEM DISADVANTAGE OF TRADITIONAL SYSTEM

• This system has very good parking efficiency
comparing to conventional system.
• Vehicle parking system is still time consuming.
• To park in upper story a helical pathway is made to
drive on helical pathway for everyone is not
comfortable.
• Efficiency of Parking system can be calculated by
total volume available verses total stored volume.
• This system efficiency of this system is poor less
than 20%.
• Infrastructure cost is high.
• Big staff is required to maintain.
• Less secure against theft.
• Overall parking cost is high.
• Space consumption is more.
• Time consuming.
• Availability of open parking land at market place is
not their.
• If availability of land is their, cost is very high.
• Number of members required to manage is more.
• Vehicle retrieval system is time consuming.
• Difficult to manage.
• Overall parking cost is high.
• Less secure against theft.
