Hello everyone,

we are currently building a house and received the upper floor ceiling at the end of last week.
As can be seen in the first photo, the wooden ceiling is not properly resting on the floor ceiling, which was somewhat fixed today by retrofitting a few stones (photo 2).
Where the beams rest, there is still 1-2mm of air.

We are now wondering if this is "normal" or if it constitutes a defect?
Unfortunately, it is a bit difficult to assess as laypersons and we are now concerned that, figuratively speaking, "the ceiling might fall on our heads" or that the structural integrity is compromised.

It would be great if someone could say something about this :)

Thank you very much

That will settle by itself.

This is not a defect. No structural problem.

But somewhere the supports must then be too high. I hope at least on both sides of the beam supports.

I am of the opinion that a neoprene bearing or similar should be placed between the beam and concrete belt / masonry. I cannot see this in the picture. Is such a thing present or does the [BU/GU] think it is not necessary?

Without inquiry, I find a statement daring. Therefore, I would clarify whether these beams must rest on this wall for -static- reasons or not. That alone is important.

How did you solve it, a look into the statics can help, which length of beams was calculated there and you already know if they have to rest there
