Understanding Far

FAR, also known as Floor Area Ratio, is the result of dividing the sum of all floor areas (plinth area) by the plot’s size and then multiplying the outcome by 100. It gives an essential measure of building density and is calculated as follows: FAR = (Total covered area of all floors x 100) / Plot Area.

Dwelling Units Explained

As understood, a Dwelling Unit is an individual living area that comes with its own living, cooking (typically limited to one kitchen), and sanitary facilities, providing a self-sufficient housing arrangement.

Terminology

Floor area ratio (FAR), alternatively referred to as floor space ratio (FSR), floor space index (FSI), site ratio, or plot ratio, holds significance in building regulations.

In India, both FAR and FSI are commonly employed, but they differ in essence – FAR is a ratio, whereas FSI is an index. The distinction lies in how FSI is presented as a percentage relative to a single base figure. For instance, an FAR of 1.5 translates to an FSI of 150%.

The Impact of Defining FAR on a City:

Cities, much like structures, have their limits, and exceeding them can lead to numerous problems. FAR serves as a critical tool in defining these limits to ensure the well-being of citizens. It considers factors like disaster resilience, enabling governments to zone land and restrict urban density. By controlling building occupants and aiding architects and construction workers in design decisions, FAR plays a pivotal role in maintaining a balanced and sustainable urban environment.
