Hello Tiya, I saw you were asking how to measure height of building and I am here to help you with the process. In general, the height is measured from the ground to the highest point of the building. Let me expand on this below.

How Do You Measure the Height of a Building?

For this method, you’d need a pencil, and another person along with yourself.

  1. Hold a pencil vertically and walk away from the building. Do so till the time the pencil appears as the same size as the building. During this, the pencil should be at your arm’s length and you should be looking through one eye.

  2. Then, level the base of your pencil with the feet of the other person, who should be standing right next to the building. 

  3. Rotate the pencil 90 degrees so that the pencil is now horizontal. Ask the other person to turn and walk along the pencil to the end.

  4. Measure the distance that the person has travelled. This distance will be the building’s height.

This is how to measure a building height.

Hey,

Have you ever passed by a building and wondered how tall they were? I have plenty of time to satisfy my curiosity. I figured out ‘ the height of a building is measured in ?’ There are three separate ways to measure apartments. You can choose the method you like. Take a look at my comment below. 

How to measure the height of a building? Formulae :

You can use this formula to get desired results. 

Height of the building = y * tan x + measurer's height.

Here, y will be the distance of the measurer from the building. 

x will be the angle measured from the clinometer.

Manual :

The height of a building is measured in feet. Some people measure it in feet and inches for accuracy. You can measure it by standing at a vertical angle and looking at the highest point of the deck line. 

Professionals :

Architects and experts use a clinometer to measure the height of buildings. They use a ranging rod to measure the inclination of the structural top of the apartment. If the house has a penthouse tower. The measurement will include that.  

Process :

Height is measured from the sidewalk of the main entrance to the structural top of the building including the penthouse and tower. On the other hand, television towers, radio antennas, and flagpoles are included. 

This is all from my end on how to measure the height of a building.
