Question 8: Floor area
Floor area is the dimension of the floor that is lived on and is used for everyday use by the household members, including the terrace, garage, WC and storage room in a single census building. For a two story building, the floor is all stories that are lived in and used for everyday use, and needs to be calculated.
Calculate the whole dimension of the building floor that is occupied by the household in square meters (rounded figures). If several households occupy one census building, the dimension of the floor that is used together could be divided by the number of households that use them. If there are two separate buildings that are occupied by one household and are still in one segment group, the dimension of the floor is calculated as a whole.
