What are full storeys?

Full storeys are storeys in a building that have a certain minimum height and are therefore considered full storeys. The exact regulations for the definition of full storeys can vary in building codes and building regulations depending on the country and region. In general, full storeys are considered to be such if the clear height of the rooms within these storeys meets certain minimum requirements. The number of full storeys is a criterion used in building regulations for calculating building heights and other aspects of building law.
