    This document discusses calculating the net rentable area and gross floor area of a proposed office block for project cost estimation. It provides an example scenario where the required net rentable area is 15,000 sqm and the estimated efficiency ratio of net rentable area to gross floor area is 75%. Based on this, the calculated gross floor area is 20,000 sqm. The document also notes that cost rates can be obtained from records and guides, but should correspond to similar prototype buildings and account for each element's function and respective rates.

    as follows in Scenario 4 below:

    Scenario 4: Proposed office block

    Required NRA = 15000m 2


    Efficiency = NRA/GFA = 75%
    GFA = 15000m2/0.75 = 20000m2

    Rates employed or utilized in the calculations can be retrieved from internal office
    records or archives. Conscientiously and discreetly adopt or pick rates from
    published cost guides affiliated or corresponding to similar prototype of building
    and of similar nature. However, each element should be measured according
