Formulas Used
- Price per ft²:
pricePerSqFt = totalPrice / areaSqFt
Source: ANSI Z765 / BOMA measurement standards - Price per m²:
pricePerSqm = totalPrice / areaSqm
Source: Standard calculation - ft² to m² Price Conversion:
pricePerSqm = pricePerSqFt x 10.764
Source: NIST conversion factor - Total from Rate:
totalPrice = pricePerSqFt x areaSqFt
Source: Standard calculation
Key Assumptions
- 1 m² = 10.764 ft² (standard conversion factor) — NIST
- Areas are assumed to be measured to ANSI Z765 (residential) or BOMA (commercial) standards — ANSI Z765 / BOMA International
