Hello everyone, I have not been able to find a proper answer to this topic so far. I would like to submit my building application via the notification procedure. Problem: Roof overhang (about 10m long and only on one side) is about 30cm-50cm outside the building window. All exterior walls are within the building window. The only text I found is: According to Building Regulations BW § 5 (6) In the measurement of the distance area, the following are disregarded 1. subordinate components such as cornices, roof overhangs, entrance and terrace canopies, provided they do not protrude more than 1.5 m beyond the exterior wall What are your opinions/experiences?

A subordinate roof overhang may exceed the building boundary. The extent to which a roof overhang is considered subordinate is not regulated by planning law. From experience, I say: up to 50cm subordinate, over 1m not subordinate, in between it depends on the function and the effect in the overall context. The total dimension of the roof overhang, not the measure of the exceedance, must be considered.

If it is still about the "Stadtvilla" from your other thread, I consider approximately 62cm to be subordinate. However, since in the notification procedure your authorized design drafter assumes full responsibility for compliance with public law regulations, only his assessment matters.

Thank you very much for your response.
Yes, it is still about my town villa (hip roof, 10.07m long).
I am now curious about what my architect will plan.
