Prefabricated Multi-storey Floor Deck Steel Car Parking Shade Structures​

Visit any major city, and steel is front and center - everything from girder slabs to staggered trusses on construction sites - as the skyline undergoes yet another change. Noting its highest strength-to-weight ratio and the capability to accommodate long spans and open-bay footprints, we expect this remarkable material to work its magic in the creation of looming skyscrapers and landmark buildings. However, steel also delivers when it comes to what might be considered more mundane architecture: parking structures.

 
1. What is steel structure?

Steel structure is a metal structure which is made of structural steel* components connect with each other to carry loads and provide full rigidity. Because of the high strength grade of steel, this structure is reliable and requires less raw materials than other types of structure like concrete structure and timber structure.

In modern construction, steel structure is used for almost every type of structure including heavy industrial buildings, multi-storey buildings, equipment support systems, infrastructure, bridges, towers, airport terminals, etc.
 
 
2. Why choose steel parking structures?

*Long Spans
Space availability for parking structures is often restricted, confined, and misshaped, but the design opportunity in steel is to optimize space usage through long open spans. Although long spans - typically 55 to 65 feet - may increase weight, the cost (due to fabrication and erection efficiencies) can be reduced by as much as 10 percent over conventional methods. Advantages of long spans include:

• Column-free areas that simplify maintenance and improve illumination.
• Less opportunity for damage to automobiles.
• More openness and improved effect (safety/comfort) for patrons.
• Greater flexibility to re-stripe stalls.
• Fewer spaces lost to careless parkers in three-car bays.

*Adaptability
Restrictions of space and accessibility of irregularly shaped or small sites, as well as limited foundation depths, can be addressed by incorporating lightweight steel frames in parking structures.

*Ease of Maintenance
Today’s modern protective coatings and/or high-performance paint systems protect steel-framed parking structures for 30 to 50 years, with merely minimal touch-ups. The open and readily accessible steel frame - a “standard” - simplifies surface inspection and maintenance.
