Enter the usable square footage (ft^2) and the pro-rata share of the common areas of the building (ft^2) into the Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Rentable Square Footage. 

Rentable Square Footage Formula

RSF = USF + PRC

Variables:

  • RSF is the Rentable Square Footage (ft^2)
  • USF is the usable square footage (ft^2)
  • PRC is the pro-rata share of the common areas of the building (ft^2)

To calculate Rentable Square Footage, add the usable square footage to the pro-rata share of the common areas of the building.

How to Calculate Rentable Square Footage?

The following steps outline how to calculate the Rentable Square Footage.


  1. First, determine the usable square footage (ft^2). 
  2. Next, determine the pro-rata share of the common areas of the building (ft^2). 
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = RSF = USF + PRC.
  4. Finally, calculate the Rentable Square Footage.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

usable square footage (ft^2) = 2000

pro-rata share of the common areas of the building (ft^2) = 300
