How is the square footage of the High Bay area calculated?

The square footage of the High Bay area is calculated by adding the areas of multiple sections. This approach is essential, especially in areas where the design incorporates different sections with unique dimensions or configurations. Each section's area can vary significantly, and therefore, calculating the total by summing these individual areas gives a more accurate measurement of the entire High Bay space.

Calculating just one section's dimensions would overlook the contributions from other sections, leading to an incomplete and potentially misleading measurement. Multiplying the width and height of the area does not apply in this context; square footage calculations require both length and width rather than height, which is relevant for volume rather than area. Subtracting unusable space is also not the method for determining total square footage; while it's important for considering usable area, it does not accurately reflect the total area of the High Bay. Thus, summing the areas of all sections provides a comprehensive understanding of the total square footage for design and planning purposes.
