And if you are an architectural guy, then please give me your contact information (like e-mail id of msn or yahoo) do that i can ask you some other questions too. Thanks a lot in advance, it’ll be really appreciated.

Please let this just be for an assignment. I hope you’re not responsible for a real-life building if you’re asking here.
That is a wide open question because floor space is dependant on property lines and parking requirements, also city bylaws. The average size also depends on the economy and how much your client is willing to risk financially. The strip malls that I have worked on in the past 39 years are most often 80 to 100 feet deep, meaning from the front acsess to the rear. The width of each leaseable space is often governed by the new tennant or more often governed by the structural columns and I-beams. in strip malls the structural members are 20 feet apart (usually). Factor in how much glass you need. In some cases this could be called a curtian wall, depending on where you live and the lingo your architect uses. I have only done two mega malls and hated working on them. hope this helps a bit.
