What does the Floor Area Ratio include?

Only non-habitable structures
All habitable structures on a lot
Only parking structures and lots
Gardens and outdoor recreational spaces

The correct answer is: All habitable structures on a lot

The Floor Area Ratio (FAR) is a planning tool used to regulate the relationship between a building's total floor area and the area of the lot on which it is built. The FAR is calculated by dividing the total floor area of all habitable structures on a lot by the total area of the lot. This means that both habitable and non-habitable structures are included in the calculation, making options A, C, and D incorrect. The only correct option is B, which mentions all habitable structures on a lot. This includes buildings such as residential homes, apartment buildings, offices, and commercial spaces. Therefore, the FAR takes into account all structures that are intended for human use on a lot.
