Hello everyone,
I am currently planning the renovation of my parents' house and have a question about the calculation of the full floor. Upon request, I received an excerpt from the building authority defining the calculation... unfortunately, I am not quite clear about it:
For a full floor, the attic must have a clear height of at least 2.3 m over 2/3 of the area of the floor below. How is this now if a roof terrace is planned? As far as I understand, it does not have a clear height... does it then count towards the area above 2.3 m or below 2.3 m... in newer plans I have read that a roof terrace is not taken into account in the calculation... however, due to the wording "the floor area of the floor below," the roof terrace should also be considered...
The exact background is that I am not allowed to build another full floor, so it would be interesting for me whether a full floor can be avoided by an attic expansion with dormers if I plan a somewhat larger roof terrace.
I hope you can help me and thank you in advance for your attention.
Best regards
