NCIDQ BOMA AREA MEASUREMENTS
TEST
Rentable area, which is the sum of a tenant's rental space plus a prorated amount
of any shared spaces, is computed by multiplying the gross occupant area by the
building load factor.
region of circulation-ANSWER N/CM
multiplier of circulation-ANSWER N/CA
net area ANSWER CM * CA
region that can be rented - ANSWER O * LF
load factor - R/O ANSWER
Area occupied: ANSWER R/LF
total area (ANSWER R + Building Exterior Walls and Vertical Penetrations)
net area - EF * 1/O ANSWER
Area of occupancy: ANSWER N * 1/CM
Area occupied: ANSWER N * 1/EF
The ANSWER inverse of the efficiency factor is the circulation multiplier.
factor of efficiency-ANSWER N / 1/O
gross area (including external walls) = ANSWER N / EF
BOMA & IFMA: A ANSWER Which two organizations' standards serve as the
foundation for the two main approaches of measuring space?
, The ANSWER organization that creates standards outlining standard techniques
for measuring space in retail, industrial, multi-unit residential, and mixed-use
buildings is the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA)
International. North America makes extensive use of these standards.
The ANSWER organization known as the International Facility Management
Association (IFMA) creates standards known as Standard Practice for Building
Floor Area Measurements for Facility Management (ASTME1836/E1936M)
that provide techniques for measuring area.
Efficiency factors: ANSWER The designer must account for non-programmed
regions when calculating this. These consist of amenities like service areas,
restrooms, walls, and circulation. They can then use the established goals and
objectives as the foundation for the budget and schedule requirements. This
makes it possible to create the most precise design plan for the suggested new
facilities.
Area usable: ANSWER space that a renter is actively using. The net area and
secondary circulation space are included in this measurement, which is utilized
in space planning and design. excludes elevator lobbies, main circulation,
restrooms, and other spaces unique to a given floor. more than the net area.
Area occupied: ANSWER space that a renter is actively using. comprises the
tenant's secondary circulation, net assignable area, and any incidental spaces
(such columns and other objects) in their space. When a tenant takes over a
complete level, this can include the main circulation, lavatories, and service
areas designated for that floor. more than the net area.
The ANSWER private circulation area serves as a secondary circulation space,
connecting to the public corridors and primary circulation areas.
Net area is the amount of space needed for the function in the space; it excludes
incidental space (internal walls and building columns) and other areas related to
the space, such as restrooms, mechanical rooms, hallways, and wall thicknesses.
