Guidelines for Planning Automated Parking System

Potovalne navade ljudi se spreminjajo iz leta v leto, prav tako pa se povečuje želja po svobodi ljudi. Zato je bil porast deleža osebnih avtomobilov med motornim cestnim prometom povsem pričakovan. Z leti se je dajalo vse več poudarka motornemu prometu, zlati v mestnih središčih. V zadnjih letih pa se daje vse večji poudarek na trajnostno mobilnost, ki se osredotoča in daje večji pomen človeku. Osebni avtomobili imajo tako najmanj njene pozornosti. Pomembno je zavedanje, da se miselnost ljudi ne bo spremenila iz danes na jutri, delež osebnih avtomobilov pa se prav tako ne bo znižal čez noč. Največjo težavo pri tem predstavljajo parkirne površine, saj je velik delež namenjen mirujočemu prometu, te površine pa zavzemajo veliko kvalitetnega prostora. Tako je potreba po novem pristopu za načrtovanje parkirnih površin za mirujoč promet več kot primerna. V Sloveniji smernic, pravilnikov, standardov in drugih dokumentov, ki bi bili projektantom v pomoč, glede načrtovanja in projektiranja avtomatskih parkirnih naprav, zaenkrat še ni. Namen magistrskega dela je podati smernice za lažji začetek projektiranja avtomatskih parkirnih naprav. Pri tem je za učinkovitejše obratovanje potrebno zadostiti določenim robnim pogojem. V ta namen so podane osnovne zahteve, ki jih je priporočeno izpolniti in sicer: izbira vrste avtomatske parkirne naprave, primernost umestitve v prostor, prednosti in slabosti posamezne avtomatske parkirne naprave, prednosti in slabosti različnih motornih vozil za uporabo, dimenzije vozil in parkirnih mest ter značilnosti uvažanj in izvažanj iz parkirne naprave. Na koncu so predstavljeni še štirje praktični primeri umestitve avtomatskih parkirnih naprav na mestu obstoječih površin za mirujoč promet.Our personal transport habits change with each passing year, accompanied by a steady increase in the desire for freedom. The increased share of passenger cars among motorised road traffic was therefore expected. In the past, motorised vehicles were put centre stage, especially in city centres. Nowadays, the impetus is on sustainable mobility, and focusses on people themselves. This means passenger vehicles command less attention. It is important to realise that our habits will not change overnight. The same is true for the number of passenger vehicles on our roads. Parking areas represent the most significant challenge, as a large share of these surfaces are given to stationary vehicles which take up valuable space. A new approach to the planning of parking areas for stationary traffic is therefore more than warranted. Slovenia currently does not have guidelines, rules, standards, and other regulations that would help urban planners to design and engineer automated parking systems. The aim of this master’s thesis is to establish guidelines that facilitate the first design phases of automated parking systems. To ensure efficient operation, a few conditions must be met. We have therefore set out a list of basic requirements to be considered: selecting the right type of automated parking system, the advantages and disadvantages of various motor vehicles, vehicle and parking space dimensions, as well as the characteristics of driving to and from the parking system. The thesis also presents four practical examples of how to place automated parking systems onto existing parking areas for stationary traffic
