Parking & ECS in Bihar

Parking is counted in Equivalent Car Spaces. These rules fix how many you need, how big each is, and what the ramp that reaches them may do.

How many parking spaces must I provide?

Parking is allowed on any floor. Under no circumstances may parking floors, or provision made for parking, be used for any other purpose. Mezzanine floors and any floor partition are computed under FAR and counted as a floor.
