The Analysis Dashboard
The analysis dashboard allows you to track the site and building statistics in real time.
TFA – Total Floor Area – The total floor area within the building, measured to the external face of the external walls.
GFA – Gross Floor Area – The total floor area multiplied by the efficiency factor(configurable).
Site Area – The total area of the site within the site boundaries.
FSI – Floor Space Index. Also referred to as FAR (Floor Area Ratio) is the ratio of the total floor area (GFA) to site area.
BCR – Building Coverage Ratio – The ratio of the building total first-floor area (footprint) divided by the site area.
Height – The height of the highest building in the study.
Storeys – Total number of storeys.
NSA – Net Saleable Area – The amount of space for sale extracted from the total floor area, calculated by the sell efficiency factor(configurable).
Units – Total unit count – NSA divided by average unit size.
Parking – Total required and provided parking spots, calculated by parking/units ratio, and parking per m2 / ft2.
Cost – High-level cost estimation calculated by cost per m2 / ft2.
Unit Mix
The number of different residential units in the project by types.
