We are planning a major renovation of a single-family house built in '61.
The ceilings of the ground floor and the upper floor are constructed as reinforced concrete ribbed slabs.
(EG: Rib direction O <-> W; OG: Rib direction N <-> S)
My wish would be to create an opening in the ceiling of the bedroom to get a view of the sky/stars.
Before I approach a structural engineer with this request, I wanted to ask if there are people here who have experience with reinforced concrete ribbed slabs and can roughly tell me whether such an opening is even possible and affordable.
