Preliminary information:
Urban villa (built in 2019)
36.5 cm Poroton without insulation with silicone resin plaster
Garage (built later as own work)
6.50 m * 9 m
24.5 cm Poroton
1 interior wall 11.5 Poroton
Wood flat roof
Access to the house
The base slab will be made directly for both objects by the general contractor
Sketch of the garage’s location to the house is attached.
If we add the garage later, we had always thought of 4 walls so far.
Now, however, it has been suggested to us to build the garage on the house without a separate wall.
I would also prefer this option, since you would have at least 25 cm more space inside.
Now to the question that occupies me:
Where/how is the roof fastened/supported on the house side?
Is the purlin left out and the rafters attached to the masonry with joist hangers?
Is that sufficient to carry the load?
Or is there the possibility to create internal joist hangers in the house wall by cutting out the masonry bricks, so that the rafters then rest inside the house wall? (but there would have to be quite a few. That wouldn’t look good before building the garage, I think)
What other possibilities are there?
I won’t just be able to screw a purlin to the house with “arm-thick” screws, right?
Yes, we will also discuss this with an architect or general contractor, but I like to go into such a conversation with some prior knowledge before I am sold a pig in a poke.
Thanks for your information.
