According to Sun Wind Light book: AZIMUTH, Solar is the angle of the sun, as seen in plan, measured in degrees from south (or from north in the Southern Hemisphere)…. Used in this book, an azimuth of zero describes a glazing or wall that faces due south, so north orien￾tation = 180˚, west orientation = 90˚ west and east orientation = 90˚ east.

Some municipalities do include basements in FAR calculations. Does the ARE assume that FAR does not include below grade floors?

Probably smart to go with what Black Spectacle says. They go to NCARB hosted events where they discuss ARE and stuff...

The question asked about the topography was referring to option D, not B. Can you provide a reason as to why D is not the best option?

[@shenhanzhu3567]

the topography is higher (see 640 line) to the north of D, so it blocks the view line.
