SAMPLE PROBLEM GIVEN:
Conference room: Area = 26.52 m2
Window, W-2 = 1200 x 1250mm
perimeter = 22.79 m floor-to-floor height = 3.75 m
Window, W-4 = 1150 x 1750mm Door, D-11 = 900 x 1200mm

SOLUTION:
FLOOR FINISHES: Floor Finish Type = cement with polyutherane (FF-2) Floor Finish Area = Net Floor area = 26.52 m2 CEILING FINISHES: Ceiling Finish Type = 600 x 1200mm acoustic ceiling tile (CF-1) Ceiling Finish Area = Net Ceiling Area = 26.52 m2 INTERIOR WALL FINISHES: Interior Wall Finish Type = plain cement in paint finish (WF-1) Interior Wall Finish Area = perimeter x height – door & window opening = [22.79 x (3 + 0.1)] – [(3*1.2*1.25)+(1.15*1.75) = 63.06 m2
area + (0.9*1.2)]
