Firsthoch/Firstoffen - Costs for extras

But you could already clarify whether a knee wall and a dwarf wall are supposed to be connected here in series.

I want the roof to start at about 140 - 150 cm in the room - I don't know which technical term is used here now. I thought both were the same.

A knee wall props up the foot purlin so that the foot of the roof slope already begins higher. A [Drempel], on the other hand, is a false wall that recesses behind a roof slope starting at the floor level until the desired height is reached. However, there are regional building culture differences and therefore areas where one or the other method predominates and the other is almost unknown. In such cases, the knee wall is also called [Drempel] – hence the Babylonian confusion of terms. Where the exterior knee wall ([Kniestock]) is limited very low, sometimes an interior knee wall ([Drempel]) is built behind it. In my view, this rarely makes sense – as is also the case with a roof without eaves overhang. And you may also gladly explain this: why you want such a thing (or do you mean a gable overhang-less roof, i.e., should it be flush at the verge)?

However, there are regional building culture differences and thus areas where one or the other method is predominant and the other is almost unknown. In such cases, the knee wall is also called a knee wall – hence the Babylonian confusion of terms. Where the exterior knee wall (knee wall) is limited very low, sometimes an interior knee wall (knee wall) is built behind it. In my view, this only makes limited and rare sense – as does a roof without eaves overhang. And you may also want to explain this: why you want such a roof (or do you mean a gable overhang-less roof, i.e., should it be flush at the verge)?

Eaves-overhang-less roof = without roof overhang? If we mean the same, then purely for the look. As you know, I initially didn’t want any roof slopes at all and now there will be some – so at least the hut may get a modern look (provided something can still be done about the additional cost).

Your example photo house has no overhang both at the eaves (rain gutter side) and at the verge (gable side); and a knee wall.
