- Floor Area Ratio (FAR).
FAR standards are stated in Table 17C.122.200-2. FAR is the measurement of the building’s gross floor area in relation to the size of the lot. A structure that has the same gross floor area as the area of the lot is considered to have a FAR of 1, if the structure has half the gross floor area as the area of the lot the FAR is 0.5. In addition to other dimensional standards FAR is used to ensure the intensity of the structure is appropriate to the zoning.
