ROADS & MOTORWAYS. CAR PARKING, ARRANGEMENT OF PARKING AREAS
DIAGRAMS ARE PRESENTED OF VARIOUS PARKING AND MIXED PARKING ARRANGEMENTS. SPLAYED PARKING IN WHICH PARKING SPACES ARE TIED TO THE POSITION OF THE STRUCTURAL COLUMNS AND WALLS ENABLE NO LOSS OF FLEXIBILITY. SQUARE PARKING WITH SINGLE ACCESS LANE IS THE MOST ECONOMICAL SOLUTION FOR MIXED PARKING WITH COLUMN RESTRICTIONS. THREE BASIC TYPES OF STRUCTURE FOR MULTI-STORY CAR PARKS ARE RECOMMENDED' /1/ THE FLAT PLATFORM TYPE TO WHICH ACCESS IS OBTAINED BY RAMP FROM LEVEL TO LEVEL, /2/ THE SPLIT LEVEL TYPE BY WHICH TWO ADJACENT FLAT PLATFORMS AT HALF-STORY LEVELS ARE CONNECTED BY SHORT RAMPS, AND /3/ PARKING RAMPS WHEREBY THE WHOLE PARKING AREA IS EFFECTIVELY A NEARLY FLAT RAMP.
