Traffic Effects and Queuing. The queuing issue shall be addressed taking peak traffic volume. Based on peak volume data, adequate number of Entry and Exit Areas shall be provided.
Traffic Effects and Queuing. The queuing issue shall be addressed taking peak traffic volume. Based on peak volume data, adequate number of Entry and Exit Areas shall be provided. Fire Safety Fire safety measures as recommended in applicable codes (Indian as well as International) listed in Article 1.3 shall be implemented. The fire fighting system shall be adequate to control petroleum fires. Provisions shall be made in an Automated Parking Facility that leakage of gasoline tans or other flammable fluids are collected during transportation and storage of the vehicle. Construct the Automated Parking Facilities’ structure and the equipment with non- combustible construction without a specified fire resistance. In addition, those portions of the facility used for the transport and / or storage shall have a finish of non-absorbent, non combustible material. Where the Automated Parking Facility is located below a building, a 2-hour fire resistance rated separation shall be provided between the Automated Parking Facility and the adjacent space use. As the nature of an Automated Parking Facility provides the means to transport a vehicle without human interference, provisions shall be made to detect a vehicle on fire and to transport it to a fire extinguishing cell at a space on ground-floor, easily accessible for firefighters. Sound Emissions / Vibrations The surrounding walls of the Automated Parking Facility shall cover any sound emission of more than 40 decibels emanating outside the structure, measured at the boundaries of the Project Site. Not only sound but also vibrations resulting from the machinery need to be considered for potential negative impact to the rest of the building and their influence shall be kept to a very minimum. Ventilation / Air Conditioning Areas accessible to the public / drivers shall be equipped with sufficient air conditioning and ventilation. For manual/semi automate systems, where human presence in the storage areas is envisaged, adequate ventilation of vehicle emissions shall be provided. Basement shall have mechanical ventilation. The system shall be designed to provide positive and uniform supply of fresh air in the parking and its exhaust through ducts / fans. The ventilation system shall be designed to achieve minimum 15 air changes / hour in the parking / hours of exhaust in case of fire. The GI sheets for the sheet metal ductwork shall conform to IS- 227 and the ductwork shall be fabricated and executed strictly as per the requirements of IS-655. The...
