Abstract

A combination structure that provides multiple covered parking spaces and storage units for use by apartment dwellers and/or office tenants. The metal and concrete structure can be a permanent one or it can be removable, with modular storage units. The structure can be built on new or pre-existing paved surfaces, and it can have design features to complement nearby buildings.

         1 . A combination apparatus for providing covered parking for vehicles and storage, said apparatus comprising: 
 at least four columns, each one of the columns having a first end and a second end, the first end being affixed to a paved surface;    a steel frame support mounted onto the second ends of the columns;    a concrete deck having a perimeter, the deck being affixed to the steel frame;    a storage compartment having interior divider walls forming multiple adjacent storage spaces; and    means for accessing the storage spaces.    
     
     
         2 . The combination apparatus of  claim 1  which further includes a stairway and a walkway to the storage spaces.  
     
     
         3 . The combination apparatus of  claim 2  which further includes a guardrail affixed to a section of the perimeter of the concrete deck.  
     
     
         4 . The combination apparatus of  claim 1  wherein the means for accessing each of the storage spaces comprises a coiling door.  
     
     
         5 . A removable combination apparatus for providing covered parking for vehicles and storage, said apparatus comprising: 
 at least four columns, each one of the columns having a first end and a second end, the first end being affixed to a paved surface;    a steel frame support mounted onto the second ends of the columns;    an angle iron frame having a perimeter;    prefabricated concrete panels affixed to the angle iron frame;    a multiple number of prefabricated storage units arranged and affixed adjacent one to another, the storage units being affixed onto the concrete panels;    means for accessing the storage units.    
     
     
         6 . The combination apparatus of  claim 5  which further includes a stairway and a walkway to the storage units.  
     
     
         7 . The combination apparatus of  claim 6  which further includes a guardrail affixed to a section of the perimeter of the angle iron frame.  
     
     
         8 . The combination apparatus of  claim 5  wherein the means for accessing each of the storage units comprises a coiling door.
