Selection Stone New Single-Family House Construction

Location of the bedroom, soundproof windows

The location of the bedroom is already fixed. I will include doors with increased sound insulation and windows. Thanks.

I have already read quite a bit here.

At least from me still decidedly too little – otherwise you should know my #Steinemantra and also my urgent advice to all newbies to show their project as a whole and to subject the design before any "fixations" to critique (because post alea iacta none of it helps anymore).

So in summary, we actually want to realize the best combo in price-performance-sound insulation somehow as masonry. [ / ] In any case, we coordinate that with the architect. That will also be included in the architect’s planning.

That sounds contradictory: such triangular priorities are postulated rather by people who do not engage an architect without quotation marks and certainly not mandate them including execution planning (service phase 5).

We don’t want clinker and not aerated concrete either.

1. okay; 2. needs explanation!

We already have. Poroton filled or unfilled!

What is the architect’s profession? – if you talked about your sound insulation focus, a professional can hardly lump unfilled and filled porous bricks together!

Stone is out of the question for us for various reasons.

I don’t know that at all (?) You write about a "one-and-a-half-story bungalow," you probably mean a house with a converted or at least conversion-prepared pitched roof floor (without knee wall?); in the attic you will hardly get past gable-parallel lightweight walls at least (which is not bad). Also, that you are a limestone block fanboy, you should reconsider with advice.

At least from me still decidedly too little - otherwise you should know my #Steinemantra and also my urgent advice to all newbies to show their project as a whole and to put the design before any "fixations" to criticism (because post alea iacta it no longer helps).

Not usable for our purposes and also not particularly helpful in my opinion.

That sounds contradictory: such triangle priorities are rather postulated by people who do not engage an architect without quotation marks and certainly do not commission including execution planning (service phase 5).

Also wrong. Architect does everything up to and including service phase 5.

1. okay; 2. needs explanation!

We do not want aerated concrete. Water-sensitive, not recyclable, aluminum powder etc.

What does the architect do professionally? - if you have talked about your soundproofing focus, a professional can hardly lump unfilled and filled porous bricks together!

Well, architect after all. No use. He is commissioned and we have to make do with it.

I am not saying that you should do all these things or that they will be the solution. In fact, you can buy almost any product optimized for sound, which would drastically increase construction costs and in the end you might still have weak points forgotten.
However, if the issue of sound is particularly important, you should also give it the appropriate importance and research.
Just post your entire project here, then useful advice will surely emerge.

We do not need KFW funding etc. and are therefore only trying to build towards an efficiency house 40 standard.

Basically, it’s the same here. Maybe you choose the "better" windows but then lose insulation quality because something else was not adequately considered. You can also insulate the entire house well without funding, but then systematically and not just individual components; that achieves little and is just unnecessarily expensive.

Not usable for our concerns and also not particularly helpful in my opinion.

Not only this forum is full of cases where "final" plans were completely turned upside down by the forum community and (if not discussed too late) were also successfully saved. By the way, the #Steinemantra is "usable" for absolutely everyone (and not just related to the wall construction question).

Also wrong. Architect does everything up to and including LPH 5 [ / ] Well, architect, I guess. Doesn’t help. He is simply commissioned and we have to get by with that.

That sounds like you pressured a " warns" (work phases 1 to 4) architect to also carry out work phase 5 ;-(
Of course, architect mandates are terminable, and in case of questionable competence, this should also be done.

That sounds like you pressured an "@Gerddieter warnt" (phases 1 to 4) architect to also complete phase 5 ;-(
Of course, architectural contracts can be terminated, and if there is doubtful competence, this should be done.

No, actually we don't want to pay anything at all. How do you come up with such absurd ideas? You seem to me to be a rather strange character.
Of course, the architect is commissioned for phases 1-5 and also receives his money.

Thanks to Arauki11 and Nordernay. Your information has at least helped me somewhat.

Oh, and the so-called Steinemantra is completely useless and unnecessary for me. But that is just my opinion.
