Rob- I did a quick Google Search about NASF.
www.research.umich.edu/policies/um/full_cost_recovery.html (see bottom for definitions)
www.scup.org/knowledge/cfi/ficm-ch4.pdf
(see page 4 of 11 for NASF information)
It seems like determining Net Assignable Square Feet is just like taking the gross area and subtracting everything that cannot be used as personal space that could be occupied by someone or something. NASF does not include mechanical spaces or storage areas or things like that.
I don't know whether you already knew the definition (I am guessing you did) but as far as a formula to get the NASF for a building, I couldn't find anything. It seems like it would be pretty specific to each building.
I saw one graphic that showed how NASF grew very greatly in relation to growing university enrollment. Maybe that will help you. I don't know.
Hope this helped somehow. Let me know if I can look for anything else for you.
