I completely fail at math and sizing and this type of stuff, I need to know what land size I will need for a 50m x 50m x 8 club building.
I was thinking maybe 2043 but im not sure :o

It's got a 2500m2 footprint.

So you need at least that much land in a perfect square.

Standard Land Sizes
01-29-2009 20:50
Another resident sent me this very handy information:
-----------------------------------------------------------

Land sizes are made up of of 16sqm blocks.
So each block size is 4m x 4m x 4m x 4m.
________________________________________________________________
KEY:
Parcel Size (prims) --- Parcel Size --- Number of 4m blocks x Number of 4m blocks
________________________________________________________________
512sqm (117 prims) --- 16mx32m--- 4x8
1024sqm (234 prims) --- 32m x 32m--- 8x8
1536sqm (351 prims)--- 32m x 48m--- 8x12
2048sqm (468 prims) --- 32m x 64m--- 8x16
2560sqm (585 prims) --- 40m x 64m--- 10x16
3072sqm (702 prims) --- 48mx 64m--- 12x16
3584sqm (819 prims) --- 56m x 64m--- 14x16
4096sqm (937 prims) --- 64m x 64m--- 16x16

and so on

These are pretty much the standard square/rectangular plot sizes but they can be split up in any way you want.

Well, yes... the edit land select tool selects a minimum of 4x4 blocks, and this is the same tool that is used to merge and divide land parcels.

So, it CAN be divided or merged in any variety of shapes and sizes... L shaped, E shaped, a hole in the middle like a square donut...

However, as you might guess, oddball shapes don't sell well... so most land is sold in more or less standard sized rectangles.

You'll need a minimum of a 52x52 m plot, which would be 2704 m2. But as others have said, this is a nonstandard size. You're more likely to find one that's 64x64, or 4096 m2.
