The plan of a building is in the form of a square with centreline dimensions of outer walls as 9.6 m × 14.6 m. If the thickness of the wall in superstructure is 0.40 m, then its plinth area is:
  • A100 m2
  • B150 m2
  • C200 m2
  • D250 m2

Given:$

Dimensions of outer walls = 9.6 m × 14.6 m.

Thickness of the wall = 0.40 m

Calculations:$

Plinth area of the building = $(\left( {9.6 + \frac{{0.40}}{2} + \frac{{0.40}}{2}} \right) \times \left( {14.6 + \frac{{0.40}}{2} + \frac{{0.40}}{2}} \right))$

Plinth area of the building = (10 × 15) = 150 m2$
