Requirements for the CAD drawing service “Area calculation according to gross floor area (GFA)
In order for us to be able to carry out an exact area calculation in accordance with the standard for gross floor area (GFA) in accordance with DIN 277 for your project, please provide the following requirements. This data and information is necessary to ensure a complete and standardized calculation of the gross floor area and to correctly record all relevant building structures.
Complete CAD drawings of the project
Provide detailed CAD drawings that cover all areas of the building These drawings are the basis for the calculation and allow a precise recording of the gross floor areas, including all building structures.
Plans with dimensions appropriate to scale
The CAD drawings should contain dimensions that are accurate to scale so that the gross floor area can be calculated precisely. The information should include all walls, columns and other structural components.
Information on special structures
If the building has specific structural features (e.g. patios, stairwells, shafts), make sure that these are shown in detail in the plans. These elements influence the BGF calculation and must be taken into account.
Information about building areas with different heights
If certain building areas have different heights or different floors, information on these heights or floors is required to calculate the area correctly and in accordance with standards.
Construction components and their materials
For a comprehensive area assessment, it is helpful to have information on the materials and construction components that were used in the various parts of the building. This data can be useful for documentation and subsequent analysis.
Accessibility to integration and addition plans
If the calculated areas are to be integrated directly into existing plans, we ask for access to the relevant planning documents. This allows direct integration of the BGF calculation and facilitates a consistent presentation in the overall plans.
Feedback and approval for adjustments
Make sure that a contact person is available for any adjustments and inquiries. In this way, we can respond to specific requirements and make corrections or additions in a timely manner.
By meeting these requirements, you enable us to provide a precise and comprehensive calculation of the gross floor area for your project. This creates a reliable basis for planning, cost calculation and space management.
