What is the minimum width required for a parking space in a commercial building?

  1. 2.5 meters

  2. 3.0 meters

  3. 3.5 meters

  4. 4.0 meters

The correct answer is: 3.0 meters

A parking space in a commercial building typically has a width between 2.5 meters and 4.0 meters. However, the minimum width required will depend on local building codes and regulations. Option A (2.5 meters) may be too narrow for some regulations, while option C (3.5 meters) and D (4.0 meters) may be wider than what is required. Therefore, option B (3.0 meters) is the best choice as it falls within the typical range for commercial building parking spaces and is less likely to be too narrow or too wide.
