# Test-fit basic zoning requirements

Analyze whether your design fits within the site limits. You can explore further by turning on and off certain layers in [Building design data](/explorations/exploration-settings/building-design-data.md) to test fit different variations.

## Site area

Site area information is needed to view BCR and FAR of your building. Site area value can be entered in [Zoning Data Settings](/explorations/exploration-settings/zoning-data-settings.md).

## Category

* **Building Coverage Ratio:** The ratio of usable site area to the total site area.
* **Floor Area Ratio:** The ratio of the maximum number of floors that can be built based on the site area. In Deepform, floor area calculated for Floor Area Ratio does not take into account any floor area that is below grade (ie B1, B2, …).
* **Building Height:** The height of a building, excluding any underground levels.
* **Parking Spaces:** Number of parking spaces.

## Allowable

The range of values that are legally allowed for each item in the project. These values must be entered directly through the [Zoning Data Settings](/explorations/exploration-settings/zoning-data-settings.md). The percentage(%) displayed on the screen shows what percentage(%) of the Site Area each item's value falls within.

## Designed

The values calculated for each item in the building design that has been uploaded. These values are automatically generated when the file is uploaded. The percentage(%) displayed on the screen shows what percentage(%) of the Site Area each item's value falls within.

## Designed to Allowance

The ratio of the Designed value to the Allowable value. This value can be used to review the suitability of the designed building and the project standards.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.deepform.net/explorations/data-visualization/test-fit-basic-zoning-requirements.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
