The ratio of total covered area of all floors to the area of the plot on which the building is to be built is known as:

Explanation:

Floor Area Ratio (FAR):

• Floor Area Ratio (FAR) is the ratio of the total floor area of all floors (including all covered areas on each floor) to the area of the plot.

• It is a key factor in zoning and building regulations that dictates how much floor area can be constructed on a given plot.

Additional Information

Ground Coverage:

• Ground coverage refers to the area of the plot that is covered by the building, typically measured at the ground level. It does not account for multiple floors or the total built-up area.

Built-up Area %:

• Built-up area % refers to the proportion of the total plot area that is occupied by the built-up space, including all floors and external walls. However, it is not defined by the ratio of total floor area to plot area.

Carpet Area %:

• Carpet area % refers to the area of the building that can be covered by a carpet (i.e., the actual usable space within the walls of the building). It is typically smaller than the built-up area.
