Dear forum,
unfortunately, I did not find anything suitable via the search function. If it was my user error, and there are actually entries on this topic, I would appreciate a brief note.
Otherwise, I am concerned with the following question:
For our new building KfW55, the general contractor proposes a floor structure of 190mm. An independent architect confirmed to us that he has planned and built his floor structures in the past with 150-160mm. His calculation is as follows:
Since we are limited by the maximum building height, we would like to save every centimeter in the floor to add it to the room height.
Wastewater pipes will not be routed over the floor in our planning but will be routed directly in the drywall one floor below or in the basement.
Can you understand, confirm or refute the above calculation of the floor thickness based on your experience?
Thank you very much for a brief assessment from the knowledgeable members of this forum!
Have a nice Sunday
Regards
Stephan

[*]Concrete ceiling
[*]50mm insulation, with milled-out space within for ventilation ducts (50mm high), supply and return, fresh water and electricity
[*]Filling with perlite granulate
[*]20-30mm (impact sound) insulation
[*]20mm for underfloor heating
[*]45mm for screed
[*]15mm for covering
[*]totals 150-160mm
