Car Park Designers' Handbook Hardcover

J. D. Hill

The purpose of this handbook is to provide advice and guidance on those aspects of planning and design that will enable car parks to perform their function efficiently, economically and at the same time be user friendly. The authors do not see car park design as being a finite art but as a compromise, a balancing act between motorists spatial desires and the practical need to achieve economy of construction and effective use of the site area.
