Divide the space into smaller sections.

How to get the square area of a floor.

Calculating square footage of your area. For a square or rectangular area measure the width and length in feet. You can change the boundary specifying the wall center wall core layer or wall core center. This will differ floor to floor.

In this case to calculate the square footage accurately you may need to divide the space into separate areas. If you have on oddly shaped area such as an l shape split it into square or rectanglualar sections and treat them as two separate areas. Measure each section separately and calculate the square footage of each. Divide each figure by 12 to get feet measurement.

Square footage per box will depend on the type of floor and manufacturer. Floor plans are drawn to scale in comparison to the space being created by the plan. Add the calculations together to get the total square footage. Typically it states the square footage for the total space and provides a breakdown of that square footage by living area within the building or home.

A room that is 10 feet by 12 feet for example provides 120 square feet of living space. Change the computation height for rooms if a room includes a sloped wall consider adjusting the computation height to produce more accurate results for the room area and. By default revit computes the room area using the wall finish as the boundary.
