The upper deck is formed of independent and reinforced 2.5m x 5.0m concrete slabs, poured in-situ. The pavements are separated by moulded metal trough profiles which both, protect the edges of the concrete and provide a dedicated drainage system.
The surface is finished with robust waterproofing and tarmac asphalt as the wearing course. The physical and mechanical characteristics of the deck provide appropriate traction for traffic but a negligible level of noise.
The deck surface is designed to resist the effects of chemical (oils and hydrocarbons) and atmospheric agents.
Efficiency of car storage and fast installation are two of many outstanding benefits of the Fast Park® system to car dealers. As shown by the example in a London suburb, at low cost, the system can easily be transformed into a prestigious showroom.
Car parking enhancement on these commercial sites can be added value services to clients, without substantial economic investment.
Depending on operational needs a deck system can offer independent levels and areas for show cars and discreet storage.
The Fast Park® system has been successfully installed in many European railway stations offering its unique flexibility and cost-effectiveness where other solutions might not be appropriate or able to build.
The Fast Park® system has proved to be of particular benefit to transport interchanges where it has provided a temporary or intermediate solution.
Fast Park® is particularly appropriate for highly frequented and congested parking areas because the installation can be phased to ensure maximised use of existing parking operations and revenue protection, whilst also minimising disruption during installation.
Traditional parking facilities in hospital sites very often create inconveniences to users because of the length of works. Spaces are often lost to provide for the needs of site storage of tools and equipment and plant and building materials which can be very large. The loss of car parking spaces contributes to other parking and traffic congestion concerns.
Fast Park® is successful in hospital environments because the installation is a compartmental progression across a car park using only a pick-up based HIAB, small fork-lift truck and hand tools and causes the least disruption to an ongoing parking operation, and just as importantly, to its revenue stream. Installation is without the disruption normally associated with traditional building. There is no use of large cranes or plant and the site is clean with very minimal noise.
The Fast Park® system finds favour with local authorities, as it does not conflict with the ability to plan ahead and is the ideal solution between surface and multi-storey car parks.
The structure is 100% demountable and re-usable offers many advantages, amongst which are:
Although designed as a permanent structure, planners can be assured that if given temporary permission, it can easily be removed to make way for development,
Being surface mounted there is no intervention on underground services, archaeological remains or hydrological considerations and in the case of contaminated land, there will be no disturbance: if and when installed or removed and there will remain no detrimental footprint on the environment,
Rather than to demolish and dispose of a fixed construction after use, there will remain a residual and asset value for the owner.
A nice car parking area is the best welcome for a shopping centre. If it easy to find a car parking spaces, with simple manoeuvring and without traffic congestion, every customer will comfortably reach the point of sales.
The Fast Park® system assures generous bays and with its open and well lit environment; one of the factors of safe and secure car parks.
In appropriate circumstances a modular car park deck can make a very substantial difference to the efficiency and economy of a commercial operation.
Fast Park® at Trento Airport (January 3. 2008)
The management of Trento Airport understands the importance of parking facilities as part of its operational infrastructure. It also recognises the need for those facilities to be of good quality and efficiency to meet the needs of all those persons who use the airport. Airport strategy must therefore consider the balance of supply and demand to connect all its services, to achieve a secure and attractive environment for its customers.
Development of the airport resulted in an urgent need for additional car parking facilities and to deter "wild" unauthorised parking. Without additional land, it was not possible to simply extend ground level parking; it was obvious that more space could only be provided by a vertical structure and this need to had to be provided as quickly as possible. The management turned to Fast Park® well known for its specialist experience in providing solutions of this type.
Trento Airport Management representative, G. Caproni, said,
"Fast Park® very quickly designed a car park, using their free-standing, modular system to provide a first floor deck above a surface parking of 1600sqm, with all road signs and markings, anti-fire and lighting to give a fully turnkey solution to address the surplus parking demand.
Originally programmed to be quickly installed, Fast Park® was uniquely able to complete the project and bring the 160 space car park into operation 3 weeks early, and in full compliance with the Airport's specification and security.
Convenient and available parking is a large concern for all airports and the Fast Park® solution offers a new facility that will give drivers much more confidence to find a space to park and make using the airport services far more attractive".
As an added benefit, although the Fast Park® system is technologically engineered to be permanent, it can be 100% dismantled and if removed would leave no environmental footprint - a distinct advantage for anyone, if future development of the land must be considered.
Fast Park® in France: how to get to a double parking area
The first Fast Park® installation in France was completed in October this year at the Railway Station Car Park in Valenciennes. As a modular, flexible system Fast Park® suits perfectly the role of a Park and Ride facility at the Railway Station in Valenciennes, as well as in many other railway stations across Europe. The Municipality of Valenciennes was actually forced to reduce considerably the number of parking bays because of the introduction in the urban rail network of the tramway line Transville. By means of a new Fast Park® modular unit, 300 car spaces replace now the old capacity of 196 places of the original surface car park. Charged with the task of providing a prompt reply to the congestion at the railway station, the car park management company Effia Concessions, has chosen Fast Park® to get the chance of a very quick and safe installation; which exactly complied to the primary customer's need: the works only lasted three months.
A further Fast Park® advantage is its flexible, phased installation which allows minimum disruption to the use of the car park all along the installation process.
System optimization and continuous improvement of the safety case are the main goals pursued by Fast Park®. The standard Fast Park® unit always includes bright under-floor deck and emergency lightning, lightning protection, earth grounding system, bay markings, road lines and signs, fire protection equipment (complying with applicable regulation).
In France, Fast Park® has been introduced as a turnkey solution from project conception to post sales assistance.
TWO CAR PARKS INTO ONE: THE FLEXIBILITY OF FAST PARK®
New parking deck in Charleroi, Belgium
Under the client's request, the first and the second Fast Park® structures installed for the town of Charleroi, Belgium, four years ago have recently been dismantled and re-installed in order to create one new car park.
In just thirty working days, fifty modules comprising the "Place Monnet" Parking and forty modules of "Defi -Jumet" were dismantled and entirely reused, together with new lighting components and external finishes, to realise the new single car park.
Re-installation to the area serving the station proved fast and simple demonstrating the flexible nature of the Fast Park® system that permits reuse of the whole steel framed structure and its concrete paved deck. The installation process was scheduled so as to cause the least disruption or inconvenience by guaranteeing adequate spaces to the ongoing parking operation and its users.
The enhanced structure, located at "la Villette" near the SNCB railway station in Charleroi, Provides now 250 car spaces.
Fast Park® in Wallonia
In Namur, Capital of Wallonia, a new park-deck Fast Park®
A new big park-deck Fast Park
® of 747 car places has been
built in Namur, capital of the Wallonia. The municipal-owned parking area
extends over a surface of 7.850 m2, bound to patients, visitors
and staff of the Regional Hospital Center based in Namur. The works for the
carrying out of the structure took totally 200 days and have been planned
into two different building phases, in order to preserve the right number
of needed car places during the yard-period. The Fast
Park® system has been selected
for its technical specifications and its operational possibility, first to
install the metallic components and, then, to develop the works on the deck
surface; that is to say, the car-park has never been completely closed to
its users. Besides, the parking area is surrounded on four sides respectively
by the tribune of the ancient Stadium Soulier, by the railway, by the Henrard
Company's area and by the main building of the hospital. This situation obliged
to the observance of the distance constraints and also a reduction of the
spaces for the materials storage. Alternative constructional solutions like
multi-storey parkings or parking garages would have never been completed so
quickly. Further reasons supported the choice of the Fast
Park® System: the parking surface
was a little irregular because of its own different altimetrical features,
but, thanks to the adjustment devices present in the pillars, each height
inclination has been balanced. Moreover, the system of discharge of the rain
water is perfectly working with the drainage system of the Fast
Park®, so that every possible
expensive civil work for the rebuilding of the area has been avoided.
Fast Park® at Chorley Hospital
Chorley & South Ribble District General Hospital (The Lancashire Teaching
Hospital) has increased its parking capacity by use of an innovative, modular
car park decking system. The Trust reviewed its car parking requirements and
concluded that it needed to provide 220 additional spaces to relieve pressure
from the significant demand at the site. The area chosen for the installation
had merely been prepared in stone without proper surfacing. The site would
normally have had to be levelled by means of a bulk-dig but due to the flexibility
of the Fast Park® design, the need
for excavation and retention of steep embankments with retaining walls could
be avoided.
The introduction of Fast Park®
has resulted in significant savings in cost, time and avoided the usual inconveniences
of a traditional build, such as dirty roads during excavation, road closures
for deliveries, noise and high levels of turbid pollution in the air. The
new car park was opened to hospital staff within three months of commencing
the works; far quicker than any other available solution.

The Fast Park® system is composed of 5.0m x 5.0m modular elements in steel. The pillars and the beams form a hot-dipped galvanized, steel frame.
Designed to be installed without foundations, the system has adjustable height and will take up undulations in the surface by means of a base plate on which is located a hemi-spherical node, to ensure verticality of the column. Wind braces assure the avoidance of abnormal stresses
Being flexible and modular the Fast Park® structure provides truly fast and accurate installation, easy maintenance.
The fast installation is the main benefit of the Fast Park® system in airport sites where the needs of car parking spaces is strictly connected to development plans.
Fast Park® is the evolution of a modular solution originally designed for Rome's Leonardo da Vinci Airport in 1989, when it was urgently needed to provide a fast enhancement to car parking capacity for a world event. One phase of the original installation has since been relocated to Milan's Linate Airport.
With the development of the small local airports and low cost airlines, Fast Park® is a truly cost effective and real solution to long or short-term parking problems.
The structure is supplied with external aesthetic cladding from a standard range. Other options are available.
Cladding is designed to meet the needs of a corporate image or that of planners.
The options are:
Prefabricated, exterior panels in lightweight concrete surfaces finished with washed gravel
Steel side-cladding panels
Special panels (marble, stones, etc.)
Coated steel architectural elements
Every Fast Park® structure is designed to consider the specific needs of the client and to sympathetically blend with its environment
Modular components with adjustable features ensure a simple, fast and accurate installation or easy dismantling operation.
The system can be easily dismantled and reassembled on another site and in different configurations, even if that site has different topographical features, reusing virtually 100% of the components.
Having no traditional foundations, on removal, Fast Park® will leave no lasting environmental foot print The Fast Park® has no subsurface, geological, archaeological or hydro-geological impact.
Although designed to be permanent this system can also provide a temporary or intermediate solution if land is needed for future development but without commitment to a permanent construction.
A wide range of optional elements are available to finish the structure and to suit planning or corporate needs.
Troughs and pots for cosmetic plantings on the upper floor
Troughs and pots for cosmetic plantings in concrete around the ground floor
Plastic pots allocated on steel frame on the upper deck
Grating elements
The Fast Park® is a complete "turn-key" package including all technical equipment comprising:
Bright under floor lighting
Optional upper floor lighting
Earthing and lightning protection system
Bay markings, traffic lines and signs
Fire protection systems/equipment (where required by regulation)
DDA Compliant staircases (UK)
Fast Park® is the original and innovative, patented, system designed to virtually double the capacity of an existing or new surface area, by use of a free-standing deck installed in the minimum of time with the least disruption.
Pre-fabricated elements are installed on the surface without any traditionally excavated foundations.
The finished structure can be demounted and 100% re-assembled on another site in many different configurations. The system is designed and manufactured to ensure the complete "lock-down" integrity of the system.
In many cases installation can be phased to retain spaces for an ongoing parking operation and its revenue stream. Fast Park® is the ideal solution to increase capacity, between surface and multi-storey car parks.
