    The ceiling height of residential buildings is generally 3 m. However, the minimum height requirements as per the National Building Code are as follows

    You can find more about it in this link below:

    https://theconstructor.org/building/rooms-minimum-height-size-standards/5116/

     

    The ceiling height of public and industrial buildings are larger than residential buildings, due to various reasons like the people traffic, ventilation purposes and for easy operation in case of industries.

    The minimum height of public buildings and industrial buildings is 3.6m.
