We have too much parking. The automobile-oriented utopia promised by optimistic modern architects like Le Corbusier and Frank Lloyd Wright did not come to pass. Personal motor vehicles have indeed become ubiquitous, but the effect in urban environments, at least has been more tyranny than democracy. Cars have taken over the city. Huge areas of urban land are dedicated almost exclusively to cars, and narrow-minded engineer-driven planning continues to widen streets, raise speed limits, and increase parking space, to the detriment of alternate (and by most metrics superior) methods of transportation, or any other potential use of urban space. Additionally, with technological advances allowing car-sharing and the projected explosion of self-driving cars, parking garages are likely soon to become obsolete. We don't have enough housing. As more people move to cities, vulnerable established communities are displaced, property taxes soar, and city footprints balloon. Increased residential density, through both n construction and infill, can assuage these problems while decreasing the necessity of automobile travel. I will begin my research by analyzing the typology of the American parking garage and its relationship to the urban fabric. This analysis will yield a taxonomy of the formal and material components of parking structures. Many components will be challenges to human habitation; a few will be benefits; all will present opportunities for a symbolically and actively revolutionary form of urban housing. From this taxonomy, I will develop a catalog of strategies for responding to these challenges at least to address them and ideally to reframe them as assets. I will test these strategies by applying them to a local parking garage, adapting it as a multifamily housing complex and alternate transportation hub. These strategies could later be enacted city- and nation-wide to transform a mainstay of stubborn car culture into an urban asset. / 0 / SPK / specialcollections@tulane.edu

The aim of this diploma thesis is reconstruction design of Húskova Street in Brno, which is located in Černovice district. Static traffic, cycling and movement of pedestrians will be solved within reconstruction. The project was processed in four variant solutions. Variant A is emphasised on maximal number of parking space in draft form 45° angled parking driving ahead, variant B takes into account existing condition, the number of parking space and cycling, variant C leaves current status and adjustment consists of marking by horizontal road marking, in variant D is once again effort for maximal number of parking space, but with driving to the place by reversing. Evaluation of variants was done and variant B was chosen for detailed processing

The aim of this diploma thesis is to design varied reconstruction solutions of Meluzínova, Františky Skaunicové and Komprdova streets. Given the current situation, emphasis was placed on appropriate solution of static transport and overall concept of the transport space that will meet today's requirements. All variants were then developped in form of a study, into situation drawings and model cross sections. By a multi-criteria evaluation the optimal variant was chosen and further elaborated in detail.

The aim of this thesis is made to propose revitalization of the Fryčajova street. It is elaborated in two ways which are focused on different properties. Priority of variant A is to creat so much parking spaces as is possible. Beside this variant B makes street more safeful for cyclists using pictograms and bicycle path.

The process of finding a parking space can be a tedious task that drivers spent too much time on today. With the rising threat from global warming, reducing the time spent driving is vital. The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the use of LoRaWAN for urban IoT applications by developing a sensor system for parking space monitoring to make this process easier. The main component of the developed prototype of the sensor system consists of a The Things UNO, which is a modified version of the Arduino Leonardo with an integrated RN2483 LoRaWAN transceiver module. Two types of sensors, an ultrasonic distance sensor and a magnetometer, were tested for car detecting abilities in the sensor system. The distance sensor was proven to be the more reliable sensor for detecting cars, but a combination of both a distance sensor and a magnetometer can be used to improve the power usage of the system. LoRaWAN has a high potential to work great in a parking space monitoring system and other urban IoT applications, but its coverage and reliability in different conditions requires more testing. / Att hitta en parkeringsplats kan vara en omständing uppgift, och är något som bilister idag spenderar för mycket tid på. Med den ökade risken från global uppvärmning är det viktigt att försöka reducera körtid. Syftet med den här rapporten är att utvärdera användandet av LoRaWAN för urbana IoT-applikationer genom att utveckla ett sensorsystem för att bevaka parkeringsplatser för att göra det enklare att hitta lediga parkeringsplatser. Huvudkomponenten i den utvecklade prototypen av sensorsystemet är en TheThings UNO, vilket är en modifierad version av en Arduino Leonardo med en inbyggd RN2483 LoRaWAN-modul. Två sorters sensorer, en avståndssensor och en magnetometer, testades i sensorsystemet. Avståndssensorn visade sig vara den mer pålitliga sensorn för att detektera bilar. En kombination av en avståndssensor och en magnetometer kan poteniellt användas tillsammans för att minska strömanvändningen. LoRaWANhar stor potential att fungera i ett parkeringbevakningssystem samt andra urbana IoT-applikationer, men dess täcking och pålitlighet i olika miljöer borde undersökas mer.

The Diploma thesis deals with the issue of parking in Ceske Budejovice. The basis of the work is to evaluate the transport situation in the city. The consultation will assess the critical issues, from the point of view of parking, which will be further developed by the local maintenance and measurements. As a result of the local scrutiny, measures will be proposed to help improve the current situation.

The diploma thesis deals with traffic analyzes in the town of Letovice in the South Moravian Region. The traffic analysis was performed with respect to traffic at rest in the city. Part of the work is to map the current traffic situation, determine the traffic load of roads passing through the city and analyze the accidents according to the type and cause of traffic accidents. Thanks to the analysis of the current traffic situation, critical points concerning traffic at rest were determined, at which further measurements took place. After evaluating all performed analyzes and measurements, the necessary measures were proposed that can contribute to the improvement of the traffic situation in the city of Letovice.

This master thesis deals with the evaluation of the current state of parking on the estate Bažantnice in Hodonin, determining the required number of parking spaces according to CSN 73 6110 and CSN 73 6110 / Z1. The second part deals with the design of possible modifications of local roads. The aim is to increase the number of parking spaces in the area. A newly designed residential zone and zone tempo 30 leads to traffic calming.

The diploma thesis deals with the project of transport solution for new buildings of BD Panorama Boskovice. The project documentation elaborates the design of the road, sidewalks and parking spaces to the proposed 4 apartment buildings in Boskovice The work corresponds to the extent of the design documentation for construction (PDPS).

My diploma thesis deals with project a multifunctional building. My project corresponds to the scope of documentation for the execution of construction. Building hat five floor and construction roof is green roof, single-layer flat roof. Construction systém is cast-in-place concrete frame. In basement is technical facilities and parking place. In ground floor is shop place and parking floor. In first floor is office place. In third and fourth floor are flats. Building foundations are bored cast in place pile – method CFA.
