architect-calculator

The calculator automates architectural calculations for floor area ratio (FAR) and coverage. By inputting site area and coverage limits, you receive maximum building area values to support rapid feasibility checks and layout scenario studies.

Estimating structural sizing and MEP loads involves inputting span, seismic zone, and load parameters. The calculator provides preliminary beam, column, and slab thickness estimates alongside MEP load calculations for conceptual to detailed design phases.

Yes, you can perform preliminary cost estimation by providing basic site and building parameters. The calculator exposes methods like estimateCost to automate feasibility checks and deliver rapid cost projections for design options.

The architect calculator supports code compliance reviews by accepting inputs like building type, FAR, and seismic zone. It evaluates functional and technical requirements to ensure your conceptual design parameters meet regulatory constraints.

To compare layout options for space optimization, provide varying parameters for each scenario. The calculator rapidly evaluates maximum building area and required structural elements, enabling quick assessment of feasibility and cost differences.
