Figure 10 feet per floor. Around 300 ft would be a good answer.

There is no standard story height, and it can vary considerably, as mentioned above. Ten feet is a rule of thumb for estimating. A ten story building would be 100 feet high, give or take ten or so feet. Often, the first floor in a tall commercial building is much taller than the others to allow for an imposing lobby or atrium. A two story building means a building with two floors, so the height from the first floor to the roof would be around twenty feet. But the first floor might be a few feet above street level, and if the roof is sloped, there could be an attic which is not counted as a story. So the actual height of the building from the ground to the top of the roof might be around 30 feet. It is true that a commercial building never has a floor numbered 13, but a 14 story building will have 14 floors. The 13th and 14th storys will show up as the 14th and 15th floors on the elevator buttons. Tall buildings often have one or more floors reserved for mechanical systems, and these may not show up in the floor numbering system, and may be accessible by special elevators, but they count as storys.

A story, or a floor of a building can be anywhere from 8 feet to 50 feet.
Realistically, a tall building will have 14 foot floors. 14 X 30 stories (420 feet) is your answer.

RE:
how many feet tall is a 30 story building?
Where can I find this information?

Actually each floor is about 11 feet, and therefore, a 30 story building would be around 330 feet.
Hope this helps.

Most tall buildings average 12-17 feet per floor. You can see a table of tall buildings at the link below and get a better average.

Its appprox. 300 ft tall.. Because on a verage the floors are 10 feet tall. Thats depending also on that there isn't a basement or stuff on top of the building.

If a thirty story,s building's each room's height is 10 feet for example & the gap between each floor is 2feet...then ofcourse the the height of the building should be 314 ft...

Depends on the structure and how the building was built. 10-11 feet per floor is very standard.

depends on how many feet each story is not all buildings have the same story height also its not just the story height you have take into account the thickness of the floors.

Depends on the height of the ceiling. Say its 8ft,about that of a regular house,than add a few feet for space. Id guess about 333ft.
