FAR and FSR Calculator: Determine Floor Area and Floor Space Ratios
As previously discussed, a city can be likened to a structure with a specific capacity it can support. Exceeding this capacity can lead to various issues.
FAR (Floor Area Ratio) establishes the load-bearing capacity of a city to ensure the well-being of its residents, considering factors such as the ability to handle natural disasters and other stresses.
The government uses FAR to divide land into zones, thereby controlling urban density and limiting the number of people allowed in a building. Architects and construction professionals also use FAR to accurately design and structure buildings.
