Physical densities Land area covered by block including half of the surrounding roads width = 10702 sq.meters (approx) Total land area covered by buildings = 3483 sq.meters (approximately) Total floor area of all buildings = 11847 sq.meters (approximately) So, FAR = 11847/10702 = 1.11 (approximately) Land covered by buildings = 3483 / 10702 = 33% (approximately) Number of storey = 2 to 5 (estimated) Spatial qualities This is the posh area of Dhaka city. The land coverage by individual building is very low because they leave open space in front or back side of the building on the plot as a garden but there is no communal open space inside the block. 5.4 Banani model town residential area This area was developed for high income class people in 1964 which is situated in the Gulshan Thana. Figure 5.4 is showing the satellite image of this block. Physical densities Land covered by block including half of the surrounding roads width = 4370 sq.meters (approximately) Land covered by buildings = 1870 sq.meters (approximately) Total floor area of all buildings = 4574 sq.meters So, FAR = 4574/4370 = 1.05 (approximately) Land coverage = 1870/4370 = 43% (approximately) Number of storeys = 1 to3 (estimated) 48
