Method — Geometry-based calculation

Areas and perimeters are geometric from the declared site and footprint. No utilities coordination, levels or landscape specification is implied.

Every result below is produced by the same engineering engine that feeds the High-Rise reference project, so a quantity taken from this page and a quantity taken from the workflow cannot disagree.

Governing Formula

Governing Formula
A_paving = A_site - A_footprint - A_landscape

Where:

  • A_site = Site area [m2]
  • A_fp = Building footprint [m2]

Derived Equations:

Planted area: A_landscape = A_site x landscape%
Perimeter fencing of a rectangular plot: L_fence = 4 x sqrt(A_site)
External lighting count: N_lights = perimeter / spacing

Assumptions & Limitations

  • Assumes a rectangular plot for the fencing length.
  • No road levels, no attenuation or drainage design, no utility trenching or connection sizes.
  • No car-park bay marking or traffic signage.
Engineering Disclaimer & Verification Notice

This calculator provides preliminary engineering estimates for informational and planning purposes. Actual reverse osmosis / engineering system performance depends on site conditions, feed-water chemistry, membrane characteristics, operating pressure, temperature, recovery limits, fouling/scaling potential, and system design. Verify results using project-specific data, manufacturer projections, and applicable engineering standards before final design or operation.
