Number of floors

Hello everyone,

I'm a bit stuck right now...

It's about the specification on a development plan: Number of full floors mandatory ( II )

What exactly does that mean for me?! Oh yes, and a gable roof with a pitch of 38 - 45° is required.

The first house is a 2-story house. How does it look with the second one?

Thanks!

Look in your state building code, it is defined there. The second picture can be either... hard to tell from one picture (feeling close to 2-story)

Hello,

That you also have to build two floors, provided it is really specified as "mandatory". Just like in the first picture; the roof pitch could also roughly match, maybe around 38°.

How does it look with the second one?

There the knee wall is built very high, like an upright dormer; so it is probably only a "calculated" two-storey building. The roof pitch looks like 42°, provided that can be estimated at all from the picture.

Rhenish greetings

You have to calculate accurately in detail, so you need to know the plans. The attic has a high knee wall, it could quite possibly be a full floor. But as I said, you have to calculate that in detail. Our attic is not a full floor except for 2 decimal places, but an observer from the outside will never see that with 100% certainty.

I assume that variant/picture 2 is a house favored by you?

So no worries. Knee wall or roof pitch a bit less, then it becomes a single-story building, conversely more makes it a two-story building, without it being noticeable from the outside :)
