At Clark Pacific, we believe parking structures should do more than store vehicles—they should enhance the built environment. That’s why we developed PARC: a high-performance, fully prefabricated system that delivers better outcomes for owners, designers, and users alike.
Built on a kit-of-parts philosophy, PARC parking structures combine speed, quality, and customization in ways traditional cast-in-place parking simply can’t match. Every component—structural, architectural, and operational—is precision-manufactured and assembled to fit seamlessly on-site, making PARC a smarter, faster, and more resilient solution for modern parking demands.
A True Kit-of-Parts: What’s Inside a PARC System
Each PARC structure is assembled from a standardized, yet flexible set of components engineered to optimize performance. Let’s take a closer look at the key parts of the system:
Double Tees: The Structural Backbone
Double Tees are long-span, prestressed concrete members that form the floor and roof system. They reduce the number of columns needed, which improves visibility, circulation, and overall user experience. Factory-made for precision and consistency, DTs allow for rapid installation and immediate load-bearing capability.
Hollowcore Planks: Light, Strong, and Efficient
Hollowcore concrete slabs are used for ramps, drive aisles, and sometimes pedestrian pathways. With internal voids to reduce weight without compromising strength, these planks accelerate the construction schedule while maintaining excellent fire resistance and durability.
Structural Ramp Beam (RSS): Mid-Ramp Support
RSS components support the Double Tees across ramp and flat sections, tying the ramp system into the gravity columns. In seismic zones, these beams are outfitted with a stainless steel/Teflon bearing pad system to accommodate movement and maintain performance during earthquakes.
Rectangular Beam (RBS): Drive Aisle Load-Bearing
Often called girders, RBS elements span drive aisles and other areas requiring long, unobstructed spans. These beams connect to columns or shear walls and are essential to supporting vertical loads across large, open spaces.
Precast Hybrid Moment Frame (PHMF): Built for Resilience
The PHMF combines the ductility of cast-in-place moment frames with the efficiency of precast. This innovation provides superior lateral load resistance and seismic performance—critical for structures in earthquake-prone areas like California. It also enables more architectural freedom and open, column-free layouts.
More Than Parts: A Holistic System for Smarter Delivery
PARC isn’t just about components—it’s about delivering a complete system. From design to installation, Clark Pacific manages the entire process through integrated project delivery options:
Design-Assist: Our in-house experts collaborate with your team early in the project to refine layouts, optimize structural solutions, and drive schedule certainty.
Design-Build: As your single point of responsibility, we take full ownership of design, manufacturing, and construction—ensuring accountability, budget control, and consistent quality.
Why Owners and Developers Choose PARC
Whether you’re building parking for a university, hospital, or commercial development, PARC delivers long-term value:
- Faster project timelines through offsite manufacturing and on-site speed
- Reduced site impact with minimized labor and noise
- Architectural flexibility with customizable facades and layouts
- Superior seismic performance via the Precast Hybrid Moment Frame(PHMF).
