What is included in build up?

Built-up area or the plinth area is the gross area of the property. It is the total size of the house, including the carpet area, the thickness of the walls, balcony, terrace, ducts and utility area. Fundamentally, the built-up area is 10-15 percent more than the carpet area of the house.

How do you calculate the built up area for a two storey building?

The total common area on the floor is 1,500 sq ft. Now, to calculate the super built-up area of the two apartments, the builder would divide in the ratio of the apartments’ built-up areas (in this case 1:2) add 500 sq ft extra space in Mehta’s total built-up area and 1,000 sq ft extra in Lal’s built-up area.

How is plot area calculated from built-up area?

Logically, built-up area = carpet area + areas covered by walls. Generally, it is 10-15 per cent more than the carpet area.

How do you calculate built-up area from FAR?

FAR is calculated by a simple formula – total covered area of all floors divided by the plot area. Suppose the builder has got a plot of 1,000 sq m and the permissible FAR, according to development plans, is 1.5. He is allowed to construct a building on 1,500 sq mt of this plot.

What is built up area and how it is calculated?

Built-up area = Carpet area + areas covered by the walls ft. Generally, the built-up area is 10-15 \% more than the carpet area.

How do you calculate super built-up area of a flat?

Super built-up area when the common area is known: ft, then the area proportional to one housing unit would be the total common area divided by the number of apartments. So, 2800 sq. ft divided by 10 apartments = 280 sq. ft per apartment.

How do you calculate built-up area from far?

If the size of the plot or land being used for a project is 500 sq ft and the FAR determined for that particular city/locality is 1.5, then, the total floor area that can be constructed will be 750 sq ft (500×1.5).
