I hear people talking about how tall buildings are, and they use "stories" as a unit of measure. How much is a story?

No one paid the attention that it is spelled storey
Definition from wiki In architecture, a floor is generally the lower horizontal surface of a room, but specially employed for one covered with boarding or parquetry (see also flooring).The various levels of rooms in a building are also called floors or stories, as "ground floor", "first storey", "mezzanine floor", etc.

One floor, which measures up to 12 feet, although the first floor can be taller to take advantage of an atrium

a "story" is a floor level. How many levels do you have in youre house? for instance....i have an upstairs and a downstairs. That is two floors, or two stories. hope this helps.

a floor can be categorized as a story and it can be among 3 to 6 meters on normal constructions though sometimes they can surpass 10 meters but its rare just for convention centers or similars
