Hello!

I am going to replace the existing subfloor with slotted subfloor for underfloor heating and at the same time move a wall about 50cm.
How should I set up the new wall?
I have two solutions that I imagine:
1. New 45x170 stud on which I attach the sill on top, then I set a stud on each side that the subfloor can rest on (see suggestion below)
2. Shorter stud that is vertically attached, then I attach a horizontal stud on it for the sill, as well as slotted chipboards to sit on (see suggestion below)

Note that the existing floor joists measure 165mm, so I will use a planer to adjust any 170mm stud.
