1.
site area; lot area; total area of land on which a building stands
The total area of a piece of land (a building lot, factory site, school grounds, etc.), normally measured in square metres or 坪 (a traditional unit of about 3.3 m²). A standard item in real-estate listings, building plans, and construction documents, often shown alongside the building footprint and total floor area.
敷地面積は百平米だ。
The site area is 100 square metres.
広い敷地面積を活用する。
To make use of the large site area.
新しい工場の敷地面積は、東京ドーム約三つ分に相当する。
The site area of the new factory is equivalent to about three Tokyo Domes.
Compound of 敷地 ('building site; plot of land') and 面積 ('area'). One of the standard pieces of information given in any Japanese real estate or construction document.
USAGE:
- Standard real-estate listings show three areas: 敷地面積 (site area), 建築面積 (building footprint), and 延床面積 (total floor area, summed across all floors).
- Often expressed in 平米 (m²) or 坪.
- 敷地 can refer to a residential lot, a school campus, a factory site, or a temple grounds; 敷地面積 is the area of any of these.
- The Japanese building code restricts the 建蔽率 ('building-to-land ratio') and 容積率 ('floor-area ratio') based on the 敷地面積.
