AREA

Open space area increases from BC Section 506.2 are computed thus:
a. Perimeter which fronts a public way or open space having 20 feet minimum width = (F)
b. Total Building Perimeter = (P)
c. Ratio (F/P) = (F/P)
d. W = Minimum width of public way = (W)
e. Percent of frontage increase If = 100 [ F/P - 0.25] x W/30= (%)

The sprinkler increase per BC Section 506.3 is as follows:

a. Multi-story building Is = 200 percent
b. Single story building Is = 300 percent

MAXIMUM BUILDING AREA (BC503, BC506)

Maximum Building Area = number of stories in the building times max allowable floor area (A) but not greater than 3 x A.
