Abstract:

Car park pavement design and construction did not receive much attention in Singapore until the early 1970s, when special landscape and public policy regulations requiring planting trees and growing grass within and around car parks were enforced. This rendered the conventional method of flexible or rigid pavement construction unsuitable for certain areas of a car park, parking lots in particular. The evolution is described of several innovative forms of parking lot pavement construction implemented by local pavement engineers in their decade-long search for a workable engineering solution to the problem. The features and performance of three satisfactory forms of construction are discussed and compared.
