Think about sustainability when designing parking lots

Parking professionals are tasked to create functional, sustainable parking site designs while balancing costs and optimizing space. One of the benefits of using ParkCAD to optimize land usage is reducing the paving areas to add space for landscaped areas. Natural spaces, such as grass and shrubs, add visual enhancements while absorbing storm water runoff.

Advantages of Using ParkCAD

Design parking lots in minutes, not hours. ParkCAD provides a comprehensive solution that allows users to:

• Design parking layouts with minimal training that conform to regulations.
• Design faster and more accurate layouts over basic CAD drafting.
• Quickly create multiple design concepts and present parking layouts in a realistic and exciting way.
• Calculate requirements for accessible parking to conform to government regulations.
• Uses standard regional or custom parking guidelines that can be created, saved, and applied to other projects.
• Use current CAD platform without the need to convert file types or upload files to an external server.
