Steel Frame

All the steelwork should be galvanised to prolong the life of the car park and to lower the maintenance cost.

The steel frame should have columns at about 15.6m+ spacing to avoid any columns where the cars turn into car parking bays. 4.8m + 6m + 4.8m = 15.6m. The steel frames are normally at 7.2m centres giving 2.4m wide car parking bays, or at 7.5m giving 3 × 2.5m bays.

With clear span steel framed car parks these standard dimensions work well, but bigger car parking bays are available.
