How big is my space?

How to calculate the approximate size of your Capital Growth space in square metres (not metres squared!)

If your site is roughly rectangular the size can be calculated as follows:

3 metres x 5 metres = 15 square metres

 

If your site is not rectangular then divide it into easy to measure shapes, calculate each shape and add them together. For example:

 

(4 metres x 5 metres) + (2.5 metres x 2 metres)

so thats is..

(20 square metres) + (5 square metres) = 25 square metres
