The plans I had used where the ones Xavier pointed out.
Having an engineering background, I'm familiar with plans such as these and how to calculate space. I gave it the benefit of the doubt by including everything possible and from outside walls. (btw a planimeter is a device to calculate surface area of any arbitrary figure; but I also tried to find the scales even assuming that the drawings were distorted and had different horizontal & vertical scalings).
I am aware that there are all sorts of additions possible (2' wall setbacks, cart space, etc etc). Oh well, as they say "it is whatever it is".
I'm afraid I'm a bit old-fashioned. I just expect when the butcher measures out a pound the weight of his thumb's not in the cost.  |
I agree. We visited TV in Feb. and were looking at stretching a Gardenia on all four sides. Finding a lot that the house would fit is the challenge. So our agent printed a scale version of the house and placing on plans of the various properties available. You can imagine there are set backs and you can't be off by an inch. With the scale version of the house I bet you can calculate the exact sq. footage. For me, having my tape measure in a model gardenia was the key to know if my 11.5' wall unit or my 7' dresser were going to fit!
good luck!
