The Floor Area Ratio (FAR) is an important factor in LEED as it one of the metrics used to establish density requirements for credits such as Surrounding Density. Density is a ratio of building coverage on a given parcel of land relative to the size of that parcel. Floor area ratio (FAR) is the density of nonresidential land use measured as the total nonresidential building floor area divided by the total buildable land area available for nonresidential buildings. Buildable land is the portion of the site where construction can occur, including land voluntarily set aside and not constructed on. When used in density calculations, buildable land excludes public rights-of-way and land excluded from development by codified law (e.g., set-backs).
