OK it seems we are facing a bigger problem then. The [Filigrandecke] has already been installed and concreted. This is now very disheartening, the rest of the shell construction went well otherwise... Just this one pesky wall We will have to seek the conversation tomorrow.

In which direction is the AW tilting? Picture? Who covers the costs of the exterior plaster and subsequent costs - different dowels, screws, attachment rings for electricians, etc.? The DIN standard specifies clear angle and measurement tolerances; about 4 cm is a multiple of that! Why didn’t your site manager notice this mess earlier?

I see this ambivalently: on the one hand, the statement that this is statically harmless is not entirely wrong. The house will not collapse just because construction continues on it. but: this obviously does not apply with the same static calculation, which would have to be redone!

And that is considerably more expensive than tearing down the wall and rebuilding it.



Oh dear, how is the respective wall positioned in relation to the direction of tension of the ceiling? ... however, I still see more than just a slight chance that it will not have to be demolished.



I see the urgent necessity to send a formal written complaint about defects immediately and verifiably. How the demands contained therein should be formulated, I would definitely not draft without a lawyer. And indeed, one specialized in construction defects, not in marriage contracts.

What is supposed to come out of a "conversation": Until then, you will have remained a layman and accordingly will not be able to assess what the fool is telling you.

What does the construction supervision expert say?

Letting a load-bearing wall, on which the ceiling is already resting, be demolished ... your suggestions, no no

Because of 4cm ... I can't believe it.

after all: a slanted wall under a ceiling that the structural engineer calculated for a straight wall. 4 cm is not just tolerance there, but also VAT, holiday surcharge, and who knows what else Mackerel Manni adds on ...

Are you structural engineers, that you can make statements about this?

For a wall height of 2.70m, this is a deviation of about 1.5%. The inclination is 0.9°.

I don't want to sugarcoat it. The shell constructor will have to pay for it. But one should also keep things in perspective.

The building expert, whom the OP has certainly hired for independent construction supervision, will be able to advise whether the additional interior plaster could be an adequate solution.
