4. Case Study 01( Traditional )
Basic information :
Location : Leioa, Biscay, Spain.
Area : 26800.0 sqm.
Project Year : 2013
The building is approached from rationality, constructive
conception from a prefabricated concrete structure that close
the building: aluminium and polycarbonate.
Society Parking Buildingaluminium and polycarbonate.
Feature:
Project name : Society Parking Building
Architect :JAAM socieded de aquatinters

5. Feature:
• The upper order, with an aluminium façade is
a large prism which cantilevers above the bus
dock creating a waiting shelter with a
translucent blue skylight.
• The volume is in a rectangular parcel with two
overlapping orders,
• the first is an opaque plinth with human scale,
• a big bench in the buses dock with occasional
openings for access of vehicles and people.

6. Plan Analysis:
•Out door parking capacity : 118 (car)(27,545 sft) & 18 (bus)(22,106 sft).
•Ground floor: 275 car ( handicapped facility 22 car) (59,207 sft) .

9. Case study 02( Automated )
Project name : Volkswagen Parking Lot Tower At Autostadt
Basic information :
Volkswagen multistoried parking building
• A kind of temporary vertical parking lot at Volkswagen.
• The 48-meter tall silos are composed of glass and galvanized
steel, illuminated by night.
• lifted into position via mechanical arms that rotate and run along a
central beam, moving vehicles in and out of their bays.
Moving vehicles by
mechanical arms
• gross floor area of two towers and the basement: 25,170
m²construction
Central car lift
Type -Public
Founded -Berlin, Germany (May 28, 1937; 80 years ago)
Headquarters - Wolfsburg, Germany
Services - Banking, financing, fleet management, insurance,
Owner - Porsche Automobile Holding SE (52.2%), State of
l lower Saxony(20.0%), Qatar Investment

Base
• World fastest automatic parking system
• Lift speed : 2 meter / sec
• Robotic pallet system mounted on rails
• Using 2 Car shuttles
• Each servicing 180” of the silo
• It takes In 1min and 44sec from the
entrance of the towers to the highest
parking space
• Parking system is based around micro
controller and sensor
• It follows the instruction as the computer
does do
Mechanical Process :
Structural system :
• Steel structure With glass façade
•
Interior steel structure Steel beam Exterior Glass and steel member
Galvanized steel

13. ADVANTAGES OF AUTOMATED SYSTEM
• Parking efficiency off the system is very good 70%
• Less land requirement
• Vehicle parking and retrieval is very less time Consuming
• High security
• Easy parking and retrieval
• Easy to management
• Less staff requirement
• Overalls less parking cost
ADVANTAGES OF TRADITIONAL SYSTEM
• Less parking cost
• Less parking time consuming
• Comfortable parking system
• The system efficiency of this system is high.
• Infrastructural cost is minimum
• Secure against theft
DISADVANTAGE OF TRADITIONAL SYSTEM
• Space consumption is more.
• Time consuming.
• Availability of open parking land at market place is
not their.
• If availability of land is their, cost is very high.
• Number of members required to manage is more.
• Vehicle retrieval system is time consuming.
• Difficult to manage.
• Overall parking cost is high.
• Less secure against theft.
• This system has very good parking efficiency
comparing to conventional system.
• Vehicle parking system is still time consuming.
• To park in upper story a helical pathway is made to
drive on helical pathway for everyone is not
comfortable.
• Efficiency of Parking system can be calculated by
total volume available verses total stored volume.
• This system efficiency of this system is poor less
than 20%.
• Infrastructure cost is high.
• Big staff is required to maintain.
• Less secure against theft.
• Overall parking cost is high.
