Study Notes

  • FSI stands for Floor Space Index, the ratio of a building's total floor area to the size of the land upon which it is built
  • FSI regulations control the density of construction in an area

P-Line in FSI Calculation

  • P-Line represents the outer periphery of the construction floor-wise in the calculation of built-up area for FSI.
  • P-line measurement determines the total built-up area for FSI.
  • Components NOT included in the P-line measurement are voids.

Areas Included & Excluded in FSI Calculation

  • Open balconies are included in the FSI calculation.
  • Regulation No. 6.8 specifies areas excluded from FSI computation.
  • Ducts are excluded from FSI computation as per Regulation 6.8.
  • Double-height terraces are included in the P-line calculation, affecting FSI.
  • Cupboard space is excluded from FSI calculation
  • Open terraces are excluded from FSI computation

Consequences of FSI Miscalculation

  • Miscalculating the FSI by excluding a P-line component results in excess unauthorized construction.
