Floor Area ratio is sometimes called floor space ratio (FSR), floor space index (FSI), site ratio or plot ratio. The difference between FAR and FSI is that the first is a ratio, while the latter is an index. Index numbers are values expressed as a percentage of a single base figure. Thus an FAR of 1.5 is translated as an FSI of 150%.
In architecture, construction, and real estate, floor area, floor space, or floorspace is the area (measured in square metres or square feet) taken up by a building or part of it. The ways of defining "floor area" depend on what factors of the building should or should not be included, such as external walls, internal walls, corridors, lift ...
In the area consolidated on the basis of the local measure and the non-consolidated areas of the erstwhile princely State of Kapurthala: 1 Karam 54 inches; 1 Sq. Karam or Sarsahi = 2.25 Sq.yds. 9 Sarsahies or 1 Marla = 20.25 Sq.yards; 20 Marlas or 1 Kanal = 405 Sq.yards. 239 Marlas(11 Kanals 19 Marlas) = 1 Acre or 4840 Sq.yds.
Basal area is the cross-sectional area of trees at breast height (1.3m or 4.5 ft above ground). It is a common way to describe stand density. It is a common way to describe stand density. In forest management , basal area usually refers to merchantable timber and is given on a per hectare or per acre basis.
A superblock, or super-block, is an area of urban land that is bounded by arterial roads and the size of multiple typically sized city blocks. [3] Within the superblock, the local road network, if any, is designed to serve only local needs.
Build-out applies land use or zoning assumptions about density to the available land area. The build-out calculation may deduct land due to physical constraints to development (e.g. sensitive natural resources), potential infrastructure dedications (e.g. streets, public open space, or stormwater management structures), and practical design considerations (e.g. lot layout inefficiencies).
A decimal (also spelled decimil [citation needed] or dismil; [1] Bengali: শতক) is a unit of area in India and Bangladesh. After metrication in the mid-20th century by both countries, the unit became officially obsolete. However, it is still in use among the rural population in Northern Bangladesh and West Bengal.
A barn (symbol: b) is a metric unit of area equal to 10 −28 m 2 (100 fm 2).This is equivalent to a square that is 10 −14 m (10 fm) each side, or a circle of diameter approximately 1.128 × 10 −14 m (11.28 fm).
