Do we have a ring beam for a building of this size? Or do you only mean the place where roof meets wall?

Should the 2m line be somewhere or do I have to calculate it?

I tried to calculate it. It should be 86 cm away from the wall with the knee wall.

The house is fundamentally designed incorrectly; it is simply too small for the desired floor plan differentiation. A house design with knee wall upper floor can only functionally be developed from a house design with a sloped roof attic. However, here no "one-and-a-half-story" design with insertion or elevation of the knee wall was chosen as the basis, but – and this unfortunately has very little chance of success due to its principle – a "town villa" design had its otherwise all-around straight upper floor wall "truncated" on the eaves side to the knee wall. Providing the bedroom window with a roller shutter box by shifting it from the sloped cut would only be conditionally pleasant: as a "second escape route," the roller shutter would have to be operable by hand crank.

Thank you for the assessment. It also seems to us that something is wrong here. The issue with the second escape route could be solved through the bathroom and makes more sense anyway, since a) the street is there and b) no roller shutter is needed there anyway. Everything else still remains frustrating.

So the simplest and best solution would be to reverse the roof, am I correct?
