Table 2.3, 2.4 and 2.5 shows the areas and crack for walls, windows and doors. The area
of the doors and windows for the different sections of the industrial plant is calculated separately.
The net wall is calculated by subtracting the areas of the walls/doors from the area of the wall.
The total area of the wall is 7470.52 ft 2, the total area of the window is 2533. 6 ft 2 and the door
have a total area of 356.96 ft 2.
