THE PARKING RATIO In discussing parking ratios; \'Ie have been constantly concerned \'lith what is meant by GROSS SQUARE FOOTAGE and NET SQUARE FOOTAGE. * We 'have found four basic ~Jays to compute the square footage ;n any given building. All of these methods are sound for the particular purpose they serve: 1. GROSS FLOOR AREA - total dimensions on each floor as measured from either the ins ide wall or the outside wall. Thi s is the easi est method to compute, although in our opinion not the most equitable. 2. NODIFIED GROSS FLOOR AREA - (Torrance recommendation) measured 5. from the inside finish of the permanent building. \'Jalls and eXC~Uding: (a) stairs; (b) elevator shafts; (c) air shafts; (d) toilets~~~~ a.-,'tI!

NET FLOOR AREA - th i s method is also referred to as "NET \,~ ~r RENTABLE: AREA" and is most useful to real estate people and potential lessees. The rentaDle area of an office shall De computed DY measuring to the ins i de fi n.i sh of permanent outer Duil di ng walls, to the offi ce side of corridors and/or other permanent partitions, and to the center of partitions that separate the premises from adjoining rentable areas. This type of measurement is utilized when many different tenants will rent different suites on the same floor. In the case of one tenant occupying an entire floor the full floor rentaDle calculation shall De used. All other areas. shall De excluded. , ~ ~ t '" ( t /' * See Page 12 of Off-Street Parking Requirements for Business and Professional Offices, August 4,1965. . . .' .
