REFERRAL the INTENSITY of BUILDINGS

The building is a form of a solid where the existence of cover or reduce the space available. Intensity is a measure of building density in three-dimensional, associated with a site. Intensity is used as instrument to control building density.

To measure horizontal, used BCR (Building Coverage Ratio) / KDB (Basic Building Coefficients), are used for vertical FAR (Floor Area Ratio) / KLB (Coefficients of Floor Building).

• 1st Building Coverage Ratio (BCR) / Basic Building coefficients (KDB)
  

BCR / KDB is a broad comparison between the ground floor of the building land. (Building Area / Land Area X 100%). Coefficients are usually used as a decimal or percent (eg 60% or 0.6) BCR / KDB aims to set the amount of area building covering the surface of the ground, this will affect the ground water infiltration or ground water availability for the future. Besides the existence of the guard as the ground water, surface soil that is not a closed building will be able to receive sunlight directly to make the soil so that air can dry out the surrounding buildings are not dampen.

• 2nd Floor Area Ratio (FAR) / coefficients Floor Building (KLB)
  

FAR / KLB is a comparison between knowledgeable floor building with an area of land. (BCR X n), n = number of floors (level) buildings. Figures coefficient is usually used as a decimal (eg 1.2, 1.6, 2.5, etc.) Regulations of FAR / KLB this will affect the skyline created by the existing collection of buildings in the vicinity. The purpose of determining FAR / KLB is related to the rights of each person / building to receive the sun. If the building has a harmonious high, the neighbor buildings can receive sunlight same as building on the side.
