each product. All are American National Standards.
a) Office Buildings: Standard Methods of Measurement ANSI/BOMA Z65.1-2010
b) Industrial Buildings: Standard Methods of Measurement ANSI/BOMA Z65.2-2009
c) The Gross Areas of a Building: Standard Methods of Measurement ANSI/BOMA Z65.32009
d) Multi-Unit Residential Buildings: Standard Methods of Measurement ANSI/BOMA
Z65.4-2010
e) Retail Buildings: Standard Methods of Measurement ANSI/BOMA Z65.5-2010
f) Mixed-use properties: to be published in June, 2011
3) Industrial Buildings Z65.2
a) Applies to warehouses, distribution centers, assembly (factories) &flex space
b) Jointly produced by BOMA & SIOR
c) Similar in concept to BOMA Office Standard (Usable & Rentable Areas, etc.)
d) Two methods:
i) Method A Exterior Wall Method (most common)
ii) Method B Drip Line Method (common in south no walls)
e) To cite unambiguously, must specify Method(A or B) in addition to Standard
f) Written in 2004 (prior to Gross Area standard) update in progress
4) Gross Area Z65.3
a) Applies to all buildings and product types
b) Two measures of gross area:
i) CGA - Construction Gross Area (includes balconies, roof terraces, etc)
ii) EGA - Exterior Gross Area (only fully enclosed space with exterior walls & a roof)
(1) Also called GBA - Gross Building Area
c) To cite unambiguously, must specify EGA or CGA in addition to Standard.
d) Single tenant office buildings:
i) Rent rate often based upon Gross Area (generally EGA)
(1) Sale / lease-back
(2) Build-to-suit
ii) Do NOT cite 2010 BOMA Office Standard!
(1) BOMA-96 included Gross Building Area in Standard
(2) BOMA-10 Office standard explicitly excludes Gross area
(a) BOMA-10 Office defines only Rentable Area
(b) If you want Gross Area, cite BOMA Gross Standard Z65.3
(c) Terminology is important may imply a measurement standard
e) Foundation for Retail & Multi-Unit Residential standards
