Parking Deck
Traditionally, parking structures have been designed to maximize space but have not been considered an architectural attraction. Today, the parking structure is designed to be pleasing to the eye and is a subtle addition to the surroundings. Shelco has a long history of constructing parking decks ranging from 170 spaces to 3,200 spaces using pre-cast and post tension materials.

“I was very clear with the problems and issues we had encountered with our two previous construction projects with a different contractor, and was not convinced this project with Shelco would be any different. You promised me this project would be seamless, and now I am a true believer.”
