— The Multilevel car park is a unique type of building. In India, the metropolitan cities have started to build this type of structure to solve a parking problem in congested traffic area. In nearer future, the multilevel car parks become a need of the day. Present study is carried out with an objective to understand the various forms and the structural aspect of the multilevel car parks in India. Accordance with various structural systems, type of decking system also has been studied. In present study it is proposed to analysis and design the multi-level car park by adopting different structural system like ‘moment resisting frame’ and ‘braced frame’. For this dissertation G+3 and G+6 -story car parking structure is considered. In braced frame ‘x’-type and ‘v’type bracing is selected. The car park is considered of steel structure with composite deck slab. Selected structure has self-park operational system with split-level functional type (staggered floor system). The analysis and design is carried out in accordance with the IS 800:2007 and IS 1893:2002(Part-1). Design of deck slab has been carried out using BS-5950 (Part-4) and Eurocode-4. Analysis has been done using STAAD.Pro v8i. Different parameters like displacement, bending moment, weight of member, base shear etc. are observed and comparison is made between moment resisting frame and braced frame. We have also considered mass asymmetric structure and analyzed.
