This document provides a conversion table to calculate the total gross floor area (TGFA) of different types of buildings based on their use and occupancy. It lists the percentage of excluded floor areas for each type, and the corresponding multiplier to apply to the gross floor area (GFA) to determine the TGFA. For example, for residential buildings, 33% of the area is excluded and the multiplier is 1.5, so the GFA would be multiplied by 1.5 to obtain the TGFA. The document also describes how to establish the outer limits of a building's outer face and roof configuration based on applicable building height limits and angular planes originating from the centerline of the right-of-way.

Establishing the OFB. The OFB shall be primarily determined by the vertical projections of the outermost faces of the AMBF up to a height prescribed by the applicable BHL. Figure VII.G.1. shows the determination of the angular planes needed to establish the outer limits for walls and projections of the proposed building/structure facing RROW and for their corresponding roof configurations. Table VII.G.3. also shows the recommended angles or slopes for the angular planes originating from the centerline of the RROW for R-1 and C-3 properties only. Angles or slopes for other permitted uses/occupancies can be extrapolated from the two (2) examples. (Figs. VIII.G.1. and VIII.G.2.)
