Parking houses

“Betonika” offers complete design solutions for car parkings using precast concrete elements. There are significant benefits in the speed of construction, buildability and cost effectiveness without compromise to freedom of expression. Pretensioned reinforcement allows long span floor slabs thereby avoiding supporting columns that are "in the way" and allowing the available area to be effectively used.

This is the basis for good economy. A long working life is particularly important in multi-storey car parks. They are exposed to major stresses during their service life.

The use, the form of the site and the external traffic conditions dictate the chosen type of facility. Several different types of layouts and constructions have been developed for specific needs.

Some types fit to slow turnover, some to lively traffic. Also there are different users:

constant users

occasional users

steady in and out traffic

traffic with heavy peaks

Final design must be done case by case. The parking structures must be designed specifically for the types of the visitors that the structure will serve.

Car parking in Kaunas “Akropolis” shopping centre was designed as one-way route with departures to different parts of city. It was efficient solution for central part of big city: parking house is able to accept up to 2500 cars without causing any traffic jam.
