Usable area

Usable area is the part of a building's area intended to be used by occupants or users for their daily needs. It includes all rooms, such as rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, corridors, but does not include stairwells, lift shafts, garages or boiler rooms. The usable floor space is an important parameter in the context of building functionality and property valuation. Its scope and method of calculation may vary depending on the guidelines adopted in accordance with current legislation.
