Mechanical parking garages, mechanical parking systems, and mechanical parking equipment all fall under the category of mechanical parking facilities. In the book "Installation, Operation, and Maintenance of Mechanical Parking Facilities", mechanical parking lots are defined as structures, while mechanical parking garages are defined as buildings.
Mechanical automated parking garages, mechanical automated parking lots, and mechanical parking equipment all fall under the category of mechanical automated parking facilities. In the book "Installation, Operation, and Maintenance of Mechanical Parking Facilities," a mechanical automated parking lot is defined as a structure, while a mechanical automated parking garage is defined as a building. A mechanical automated parking lot (Mechanical Parking Lot) refers to an open-air site or structure that uses mechanical parking equipment to store and park vehicles; a mechanical automated parking garage (Mechanical Parking Garage) refers to a building that uses mechanical parking equipment to store and park motor vehicles. Mechanical parking equipment (Mechanical Parking System) refers to a complete set of equipment integrating machinery, electricity, and instrumentation that uses mechanical handling to achieve planar or three-dimensional parking of vehicles. Mechanical automated parking equipment can be divided into nine categories according to its working principle, including: lift and shift type, simple lift type, planar movement type, lane stacking type, vertical lift type, vertical circulation type, horizontal circulation type, multi-layer circulation type, and vehicle-specific lift.
Mechanical automated parking lots (garages) can use fully automated parking equipment with no indoor lanes and no driver access, or duplex parking equipment with indoor lanes and driver access. Fully automated parking equipment can use planar movement types, lane stacking types, vertical lift types, vertical circulation types, horizontal circulation types, and multi-layer circulation types; duplex parking equipment can use lift and shift types and simple lift types. When the site is too small to use a self-driving ramp to transfer vehicles between different vertical floors, a vehicle-specific lift can also be used to replace the ramp for vehicles entering and exiting the garage. Mechanical automated parking lots (garages) consist of mechanical parking equipment, auxiliary facilities, building structures, building equipment, management facilities, and other facilities.
According to different definitions, buildings refer to space and entities. Structures, however, cannot provide people with residential buildings, such as mechanical parking equipment. Structures cannot provide people with living space. A building refers to everything that is built, can be used by people for living, has a foundation and space, and provides shelter from wind and rain. A structure is a space that cannot be used by people for living.
Therefore, the author believes that in the book "Installation, Operation, and Maintenance of Mechanical Parking Facilities," defining a mechanical automated parking garage as a building seems inappropriate. A mechanical automated parking lot (garage) can only be called a building if people and vehicles share the same living space within the building. If the mechanical parking lot (garage) is a stand-alone building or is isolated from the living space, it should be called a structure.
