Parking Structure Anatomy fundamentals
The components of the parking structure will vary depending on what level of service is chosen. Parking structure components include structure as it relates to ceiling height, ramp slope, turning radii and turning bay dimensions, among many other components. Table 1.4 summerizes the major design parameters with regard to its specific level of service. Figure 1.28 gives a snapshot map of the major types
design parameters to be considered that can be used as a quick tool during the earliest stages of preliminary planning. This section should be used in collaboration with the parking structure overall
