[origin: GB2439216A] The car park structure, particularly for providing a second level over an existing ground level car park, comprises a parking surface comprising at least one sheet of fibre reinforced polymer which is fastened to a support 16 with a corrugated profile. The parking surface is preferably fastened directly to the support by at least one threaded fastener. The or each sheet preferably comprises a flat upper side and an underside formed with indentations, which may be either rectangular or square, arranged in a grid. The support is preferably formed from steel and comprises profile sheeting, preferably with corrugations that the shape of a truncated triangle in cross-section. Adjacent sheets preferably have complementary stepped portions so that adjacent edges overlap, with adjacent sheets held together by threaded fasteners that engage the rails of a connector that extends between the sheets. Also claimed are vehicle parking structures defined by the connection between adjacent sheets and by the relationship between the sheets and the supports and methods of assembling a vehicle parking structure.
