This document discusses automated multi-level car parking systems. It begins with background on India's growing urban population and demand for parking infrastructure. It then explains that multi-level parking systems help optimize limited space in urban areas. The document outlines different types of automated multi-level parking systems, including puzzle, tower, multi-floor, and rotatory types. It provides an example of an integrated puzzle-type system implemented in a hospital in Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, India. The document concludes with references on parking policy and technologies.

3. BACKGROUND
India’s urban population is around 32.8 % of it’s total population
as of 2016 (i.e. : 439,801,466 ).
In context to transport system, the central business district or
CBD are majorly facing the space issues, In terms of open space,
green space and clear head ways on road.
Parking is one of the major concerns in these places.
4. DEMAND FOR PARKING
INFRASTRUCTURE
At present the demand for cars has risen to 15 % per annum.
i.e. approximately 15 lakh cars are sold a year.
Cars are being parked on the roads causing traffic congestion
and pollution.
5.
6. Besides the problem of space for cars moving on the road, greater is the
problem of space for a parked vehicle considering that private vehicles remain
parked for most of their time.
State governments would be required to amend building by-laws in all million
plus cities so that adequate parking space is available for all residents of such
buildings.
Land is valuable in all urban areas. Parking places occupy large portions of such
land. This fact should be recognized in determining the principles for allocation
of parking space.• Multi-level parking complexes should be made a mandatory
requirement in city centers that have several high rise commercial complexes.
7. WHY MULTI-LEVEL PARKING SYSTEMS ?
Multi-level Parking systems for sometime have provided relief since they come with a
number of advantages :
Optimal utilization of space.
Lower maintenance and operational cost.
Lower construction cost
(owing to the prefabrication).
Secure and environment-friendly nature.
(the outdoor space free for
landscaping)
Conventional multi-level car parking.
Comfortable for the drivers. Fig : Conventional multi-level car parking system
8. TYPES OF AUTOMATED MLCPS’s
Puzzle type
Tower type
Multi-floor/level type
Rotatory type
Technologies used for automated
parking systems are of following types:
9. PUZZLE TYPE MLCPS
Operation is simple, no need for parking attendant
Fast retrieval time, generally 2 min.
Extremely safe and reliable with safety and option of
automated gates.
This system has more than two levels of parking. Its design
has a structure that enables use of all parking entrances
and exits on ground level. The parking pallets move left,
right , upward and downward and always has one empty
slot for movement.
Advantages:

hospital, Coimbatore.
10. ELEVATOR TYPE MLCPS
Minimal land use. An area of 25’x22’ can park up to
72 vehicles.
Low noise and vibration.
Entry and exit is very quick and convenient.
Completely equipped with multiple sensors and triple
safety devices.
Has the capability of holding cue memory when
multiple patrons come to retrieve their vehicles during
rush hours.
Advantages :

system
11. MULTI-FLOOR AUTOMATED CAR PARKING
SYSTEM
Because each elevator and cart is operated
independently on each level, entry and exit is quick.
Retrieval time of a vehicle is less than two minutes.
Low noise and vibration. Entry and exit is very quick
and convenient. Incorporate with a built in turntable
on each elevator.
A self-malfunction diagnostic control provides an
excellent level of safety and reliability.
Has the capability of holding cue memory when
multiple patrons come to retrieve their vehicles during
rush hours.
Advantages :

India
12. ROTATORY TYPE CAR PARKING SYSTEM
Up to 12 vehicles can be accommodated within the space
normally taken up by two vehicles.
It is not applicable by the regulations of building coverage.
There is no need for an attendant because of its simple
one‐touch operation method.
Senses where vehicle is closer and rotates bi‐directionally
for fast retrieval time.
Extremely safe and reliable. Impossible for vehicles to fall
with endless chain and pallet drop prevention system
Advantages :

13. EXAMPLE OF MULTI-LEVEL CAR PARKING
SYSTEM IN INDIA :
In Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu a
hospital has opted for
integrated multi-level puzzle
type automated car parking
system.
Tamil Nadu:

Nadu, India
14. It works on a Parking
Management Software or PMS
where the vehicle number is
entered and the software
assigns an empty slot to that
vehicle.
Fig: Parking Management Software (PMS)
15. After a slot is allotted to the
vehicle the computer asks an
RFID tag to be scanned that
temporarily stores the data (like
vehicle number, parking spot
allotted etc.) This RFID tag is
useful in taking out your car.

16. When taking your car out all
you have to do is press the
button for car out and scan
your RFID tag.

is used for
quick and
easy
retrieval
process.
