This document contains formulas for calculating building development metrics like:
Percentage of Site Occupancy (PSO) is calculated as the Allowable Maximum Building Footprint (AMBF) divided by the Total Lot Area (TLA). The Maximum Allowable Construction Area (MACA) is calculated as the PSOmax plus the minimum Impervious Surface Area (ISA). The Total Gross Floor Area (TGFA) is calculated as the AMBF multiplied by the Building Height Limit (BHL).

ISA = hardscape USA = Softscape MACA = PSOmax + ISAmin TOSL = ISA+USA GFA = FLAR x BHL TGFA = AMBF x BHL TGFA = AMBF x (No. of Floors (including roof deck))
AMBF= Allowable Maximum Building Footprint
PSO= Percentage of Site Occupancy (%) TLA= Total Lot Area (with or without firewall) TOSL= Total Open Space within Lot (%) ISA= Impervious Surface Area (%) USA=Unpaved Surface Area (%) MACA= Maximum Allowable Construction Area GFA= Gross Floor Area FLAR=Floor-Lot Area Ratio BHL=Building Height Limit TGFA=Total Gross Floor Area Building Bulk= Volume of the Building AMVB= Allowable Maximum Volume of Building OFB= Outermost Faces of Building
