Extend cantilevered balcony without post

P-H-Å · 2022-01-07T17:34:58+00:00

Hello, we currently have a cantilevered balcony measuring approximately 1x2 m that we are considering expanding to 3x2 m. The balcony is located at a corner, and the current construction has 3 pieces of 45x195 joists running along the balcony's long side and the perimeter frame. Additionally, it is clad in metal and features removable decking. We have discussed with the municipality, and there is room within the building rights, but they are opposed to a corner post as no other houses have this. A cantilevered balcony with a concealed supporting structure is directly acceptable. What to do? -diagonal crossbeams in glulam++? -steel brackets that can be built into the balcony panel? Advice on the construction question is gratefully received! Attached is a very simple sketch.

Build the balcony without a post, wait for construction approval, and then place a thin galvanized pipe as a post afterwards.
Plant an evergreen climbing plant by the post so it is not visible.
