As urban construction continues to develop and automobile ownership rises, parking shortages in cities have become increasingly acute. Given the limited availability of land resources, conventional underground garages and parking buildings no longer suffice to meet the growing demand for parking spaces. To address this dilemma, underground parking shaft (UPS) has emerged as a highly regarded solution. This study provides an overview of the layout scheme, structural design approaches, and construction techniques for UPS, focusing on the characteristics of intensive construction demonstrated in the project located in the Jianye District of Nanjing. Compared to conventional vertical shaft garage construction methods, this assembly parking shaft offers advantages such as a smaller footprint, higher prefabrication rate, shorter construction period, and reduced environmental impact. It presents an efficient approach for the intensive construction of urban underground spaces, particularly in areas with limited land and complex environments, showing promising prospects for widespread application.
