Enter the total built up area (ft^2) into the Carpet Area Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Carpet Area. 

Carpet Area Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Carpet Area.

CA = BA * .70
  • Where CA is the Carpet Area (ft^2)
  • BA is the total built-up area (ft^2) 

To calculate the carpet area, multiply the built-up area by .70.

How to Calculate Carpet Area?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Carpet Area.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the total built up area (ft^2).
    • The total built up area (ft^2) is given as: 1000.
  2. Finally, calculate the Carpet Area using the equation above: 

CA = BA * .70

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

CA = 1000 * .70 = 700 (ft^2)


Example Problem #2: 

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

total built up area (ft^2) = 2000

${V2} = ${number 4}

Test your knowledge using the equation and check your answer with the calculator..

CA = BA * .70 = ?
