Abstract

Aims of the PII project are to provide analysis of car park structure performance and provide easy to follow guidance notes that can be used in conjunction with the IStructE or ICE guidance during construction of new build, or when carrying out inspections of existing structures. Over 200 case studies have been reviewed, spanning a range of structure types built over the last 50 years. This report consists of a review of the structural performance of these car park structures, their recurring inadequacies and defects and recommendations for improving the whole life performance of existing and future car park structures.

Document History

Produced in conjunction with Mott MacDonald.
