This update appears to be mainly a reissue; and the quality of the printing is very poor. Many of the diagrams and legends are small and the fine print illegible. A real update; in a larger version with quality printing would be worth the $300 price - this edition isnt worth it.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Parking StructuresBy J. LindnerThis book will never make any best seller list; but if your job includes maintaining a parking ramp then this book is not to be missed. It gives complete detail on planning; design; construction; maintenance; and repair of parking ramps in a way that anyone with a smidgeon of technical knowledge can read and understand. It shows what can go wrong due to weather and time and how to repair the problems. It explains mechanical and electrical systems that keep parking ramps functional. It offers insight into how parking structures are designed and built in words anyone can comprehend.In all this book is a necessity if you need to manage a parking system from a maintenance perspective. The ramp that Im responsible for is less confusing to me now that I have this book to serve as my guide.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Thorough and IndepthBy Kurt D. BeresAs an architect and lighting designer who has personally been the project manager for 5 Parking Garages and involved in countless others there is no book available that is more complete. An excellent aid to anyone looking to enhance their understanding of the design of; construction; or maintenance of parking facilities. For those looking for just an understanding of the basic concepts behind parking garages including layout and ramp design start with the Dimensions of Parking also available on . But if you are looking for something more in depth and thorough this is the book; the sections on ADA and the proper design of accessible paths are worth the price alone.
