  4. If you need to reset the calculation, click the "Reset" button.

Working Principle

This calculator converts height from feet to stories based on a standard conversion factor where 1 story is approximately equal to 10 feet. This is a common approximation used in many building contexts, though it's worth noting that this ratio can vary depending on the specific building design and location.

Example

If you enter 30 feet in the calculator, the result will be 3.00 stories (since 30 รท 10 = 3).

Customizing the Conversion Ratio

If you need to use a different conversion ratio (for example, if you're working with a specific building where 1 story is different from 10 feet), you can modify the calculation script. Find the line in the JavaScript that says:

var stories = feet / 10;

Change the denominator (10 in this case) to your desired conversion factor. For example, if 1 story = 12 feet, change it to:

var stories = feet / 12;
