Standard height of 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and multi storey building Therefore from the above fact, we can find that the floor to ceiling height should be minimum approx 9.5 feet for any good habitable room in residential home. Again let’s try to understand this fact also. In civil practice, Architects and civil engineers keep the floor to ceiling height approx 10 feet in most cases for ground floor building and 9 feet for next floor. Average height of parapet wall extension is about 2.5 feet. In general, roof slab thickness is kept around 4 to 6 inch thick, considering thickness of slab is 0.5 feet.Ī parapet is a barrier that is an extension of the wall at the edge of a roof, terrace, balcony, walkway or other structure. Calculating all these we get around 10 feet height from floor to ceiling. Now calculating ceiling height, average height of men with raised hand is about 6.5 feet, consider fan hanging from the bottom face of roof slab that is ceiling is about 1.5 feet downward side, and taking 1.5 feet gap between humane with raised hand and hanging fan, some people height are more so taking 0.5 feet extra gap. However, in general, it will kept 450mm (1.5 feet) high from road. Standard height of floor level of house from road is ranging between 300mm to 600mm (1 feet to 2 feet). Standard height of first floor building is sum of height of floor level from road, height between top of floor to bottom face of ceiling and thickness of roof slab. So, considering this fact the minimum height of the ceiling of first floor house will be decided. But when we raise our hand in upward direction towards ceiling, let it will be increasing 1 feet, so total height of human being with raised hand around 6 feet 6 inch maximum. Consider the average human height is around 5 feet 6 inches. Before deciding the floor to ceiling height minimum, we try to understand human height in different positions in a room. Let us now try to find out and understand human being height in different position in house.
