Innovative Solutions In Steel: Open-Deck Parking structures

“Steel Parking Structures Making a Comeback!” reads the headline in a recent issue of Parking Today, the leading independent trade publication of the U.S. parking industry. Steel-framed parking structures today are radically different than their predecessors. New high-performance paint systems and modern galvanizing techniques have satisfied corrosion concerns and provide a protective, attractive finish that lasts for decades. Choosing a steel framing system will improve the return on your investment through benefits that concrete cannot provide including:
! lower construction costs
! greater parking density providing more parking spaces
! bright, open interiors enhancing patron security and comfort
! earlier occupancy from reduced construction time and simplified construction
practices
! reduced maintenance costs as opposed to escalating restoration costs
! superior long-term durability
! unlimited opportunity for aesthetic expression
! greater design flexibility
! simplified maintenance procedures
! adaptability to irregular sites
! reduced foundation requirements resulting from a lighter structure
! convenience and ease of future vertical expansion
In every way, steel is the logical choice for your next parking project. This Design Aid provides you with the information you need to make that choice. It won’t turn you into a parking designer. It will help you work with your design professional to select the ideal framing system—steel. Don’t get caught in the trap of tradition—break away from that same old, tired concrete parking garage! Read
on and discover why the “we’ve always done it that way” myths of parking just don’t apply in the 21st Century. Discover how to build tomorrow’s parking structure today, with STEEL!
