An Introduction To Applying BOMA Measurements
This online engineering CPD course examines the principles, methodologies, and practical applications of BOMA building measurement standards.
BOMA measurement standards provide standardized methods for calculating building areas, supporting accurate lease negotiations, property valuations, operating expense allocations, and commercial real estate transactions.
Building measurement requirements vary according to property type, space classification, and measurement methodology, requiring consistent approaches to determining gross building area, usable area, rentable area, and load factors across different building types.
This course covers BOMA measurement standards for office, industrial, retail, residential, and mixed-use buildings, including area calculations, load factors, and common area allocations. It also emphasizes practical applications of laser scanning, artificial intelligence, Building Information Modeling (BIM), and real-world case studies to improve measurement accuracy, efficiency, and compliance.
This 2 CPD online course is applicable to civil and architectural engineers, as well as other technical professionals who are interested in learning more about BOMA measurement standards and their applications in building design and management.
This PE continuing education course is intended to provide you with the following specific knowledge and skills:
- Understanding the evolution of building measurement standards and the role of BOMA International
- Familiarizing with gross, usable, and rentable area and how load factors allocate common areas
- Explaining the BOMA standards for office, industrial, residential, retail, and mixed-use buildings
- Understanding how laser scanning, AI, and BIM support BOMA-compliant area calculation
- Explaining common measurement errors and how to prevent them
- Understanding emerging trends and the ethical responsibilities of measurement professionals
