Hello, I am going to fix our kitchen and would need to tear down a piece of wall, and I wonder if it could be load-bearing?
I am attaching a drawing to see if you can answer this. Wall marked in red.
 
  • Blueprint of a house floor plan with a red-marked wall section in the kitchen, potentially indicating a structural wall needing assessment.
  • Blueprint of a home interior, showing rooms labeled in Swedish, with a red-marked wall in the kitchen area, questioning if it's load-bearing.
This is a fairly flat roof where the trusses run from the wall between the dining room and the living room, then towards the kitchen.

Welcome to the forum!

Do you also have a sectional drawing?

What do the trusses look like, are they the so-called fackverkstakstolar?
You can upload a picture of them if it's not clear from the sectional drawing.
 
No, I can't find anything. I took some pictures but they might not say much.
 
  • Wooden attic with beams and structural supports. Various materials are scattered, and light reveals part of the ceiling and wooden boards.
  • A dimly lit attic space with exposed wooden beams and insulation materials scattered around.

Think it might be pulpetstakstolar.
 
  • Drawing of a mono-pitch roof truss with measurements, showing structural details and angles for construction.
These are not my drawings but taken from the internet. I am trying to find my section drawings but do not know how it is going.

In any case, your pictures from the internet look like truss roofs, and then normally no interior walls are load-bearing on the floor below the loft. But wait a bit, as an answer from someone more expert than I am might come.

Do you have other drawings?
The section drawing usually comes with facade drawings.

Do you have other drawings?
The section drawing is usually together with the facade drawings.
I can't find anything, unfortunately.
 
Your photos from the attic show parts of truss rafters. It would be nice to know that it looks like that all the way through. If it does, as BirgitS says, there are no load-bearing partition walls.
 
The whole way? Is it like from one end to the other or what do you mean?
 
Photograph the entire truss, even if it requires more photos.
 
Now I have obtained the drawings. It doesn't seem like any interior walls are load-bearing if I'm interpreting this correctly. X load-bearing exterior walls even if X is a bit outside the square.
 
  • Architectural drawing showing building section with non-load-bearing interior walls and external load-bearing walls.
  • Engineering drawing detailing building materials, including cement slamming, board-driven cement render, and bearing part checkboxes for outer and inner walls.
  • Blueprint of a roof truss design, featuring dimensions and specifications for load-bearing capacity and materials.

Cantilevered truss rafters made of wood was also mentioned, so it seems calm.
 
Yes, it's cool!
