Module
9'-0' x 12'-0' = 114.75 Sq. Ft. Gross
Allowing for ½ thickness of wall around perimeter (at 6')
8'-6' x 12'-3' = 104.13 sq. ft. Net
Note:
All gross areas calculated include the following:
Wall Thicknesses
Plumbing and electrical stacks
Roof Drains
Bedroom Closets
Thus a 9'-0' x 12'-9' module, gross dimensions = 8'-6' x 12'-3' net dimensions of a bedroom, less 8'-6' x 2'-0' closet = 8'-6' x 10'-3' not including closet.
