What a building! How it sprawls and lounges in the woods. How boldly the [Zipfeldach] rises towards the sky! How lively the windows look out over the landscape. Yes, this building is almost sexy, or shall we simply say beautiful? Karsten
...and I was just wondering: Gin, Rum or Whisk(e)y?! Although in the North it's more likely Plum, Köm or Korn [emoji6][emoji23] Nah, just kidding, truly poetically described with beautiful words [emoji1303][emoji4]
Can someone please post a few photos here where I can see how the pipes for water/sewage overcome floors in massive construction? Do they go up through a service shaft or are recesses milled like for electrical cables?
Service shafts are uncommon in single-family home construction. But here in the forum you have probably often seen these rectangles in floor plans labeled "DD" (ceiling breakthrough) along with a dimension indicating their cross-section. These are recesses in the ceilings—typically in front of walls, mostly in corners. The pipes are then housed in lightweight constructions. So if you want, small "service shafts" (just not walled in like chimney flues, and also without inspection doors).
An alternative would be to go through interior walls (11 cm wall thickness is DEFINITELY not enough for that )
With this wall thickness, the "slot" is then a masonry gap through the entire wall thickness, filled with insulation material and covered with plaster mesh.
What a building! How it sprawls there, broad and bloated, stretching into the foliage. How boldly the hipped roof reaches toward the sky! How lively the windows look out into the landscape. Yes, this building is almost sexy, or shall we simply say beautiful? Karsten
... and because it looks like a bungalow embedded in nature
