To calculate the carpet area of the building, we start with the given plinth area of 2100 m². The built-up area generally includes walls, corridors, staircases, verandahs, lavatories, and other spaces. According to the problem, 30% of the built-up area is occupied by corridors, verandah, lavatories, staircases, etc., and 10% is occupied by walls. Therefore, the carpet area can be determined as follows: Carpet Area = Plinth Area × (1 – Area occupied by walls and common spaces) = 2100 × (1 – 0.30 – 0.10) = 2100 × 0.60 = 1260 m² Hence, the carpet area of the building is 1260 m².
