• Parking and Turning Radius Chart for Vehicles

Layout References – Turning Spaces
 Parking Layout Details
▪ Parking spaces are usually outlined by 12-
20mm wide yellow or white painted lines.

▪ When parking is facing wall these lines are

painted to a height of 1m for better visibility.

▪ Guide rails in the floor are provided along the

sides for demarcation of parking limits and
can be about 50-60cm long, 20cm wide and
10cm high.

▪ Where vehicles are parked in lines facing

walls or at the edge of the parking deck in a
multi-storey car-park, there is provision of
buffers, restraining bars or railing up to axle
height to prevent cars from going over the
edge.

▪ Where cars are placed face to face,

transverse barriers of about 10cm height can
be used as frontal stops.

▪ Parking spaces for disabled should have

more than 3.50m width.
Basic Layout Designs
Comparative Data on Layouts Area/ No. of Vehicles Chart

Gives us an idea about which type of layout A proportionate chart to give us an idea
will be the best according to the requirement about the total area of our layouts with
density of parking spaces. respect to number of vehicles it can
accommodate.
 Turning and Parking for Heavy Vehicles

▪ Owing to the large variation

in the size of trucks, it is not
worth making out
permanent lanes or bays on
the ground.
▪ The basic requirements for
space and actual
requirements for the
manoeuvring and parking of
trucks are taken from the
vehicle dimension while
driving straight, cornering
and entering into or driving
out the parking place.
▪ The turning circle for the
largest vehicles permitted
should be an outer turning
circle radius of 12m.
Ramps and Structure
▪ All the load bearing components of
multistorey car parks (floors. walls, support
columns, bracing) must be fire-resistant.

▪ The recommended clearance height in

multistorey and basement garages is 2.20m.
It is sensible to allow an extra 25cm for
directional signs for drivers and pedestrians.

▪ A further 5cm is required for subsequent

repair coats to the wearing surface. giving a
total mean height of 2.50m, plus structures
above the access lanes, which means a
height per storey of 2.75-3.50m, depending
upon the choice of design.

▪ A relatively narrow column grid pattern can,

with careful planning and design, reduce
building costs and height without any loss of
function.

▪ Long span structures with no columns take

up 7-12% less floor area than those with
conventional support columns.

▪ Roofs with gardens on top have to be

designed for a loading of 10kN/m2.
