Murales Rivera – Markt in Tlatelolco

The Building Owners and Managers Association International (BOMA) is an accredited consensus standard developer of a few consensus products that inform facility management practice of private and public industry. BOMA has initiated the process of revising its Gross Areas measurement standard Z65.2 for Industrial Buildings: Standard Methods of Measurement. The primary objectives of this standard are:

To promote an unambiguous framework for determining the areas of Industrial Buildings with a strong focus on Rentable Area calculations.
To facilitate transparency and clear communication of building measurement concepts among all participants in the commercial real estate industry.
To allow a comparison of values on the basis of a clearly understood and generally agreed upon method of measurement.
To align concepts and measurement methodologies with the International Property Measurement Standards: Industrial Buildings (January 2018) document.

Comments are due November 4th.

You may obtain an electronic review copy from: [email protected]; [email protected]. Send comments (with optional copy to [email protected]) to: [email protected]; [email protected]

We keep all BOMA standards on the standing agenda of our monthly Facility Management standards teleconference. See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting; open to everyone.
