Hi!

I need help knowing if an exterior wall is load-bearing.

I plan to do the following extension:

Blueprint showing facade and floor plan of a proposed building extension, with dimensions and new door placement marked.

Do you think the exterior wall is load-bearing? I have a feeling that there should be a beam running along the entire facade and that these walls I plan to tear down are non-load-bearing, but I don't know if the attached drawings can confirm that or not.
I'm not very knowledgeable myself, but my guess is that image 8 has the information, although it's mirrored. I'm also attaching images of the floor plan for this house:

Floor plan showing a bedroom, entrance, stairs, and garden area. The plan includes structural walls and layout details, indicating potential non-load-bearing areas.

Floor plan showing an open-plan kitchen, dining room, living room, stairway, outdoor patio, and storage area in a house layout.

Floor plan of a house with a labeled bedroom, stairs, WC/D area, and a closet, viewed in the context of assessing if an exterior wall is load-bearing.

If someone with more knowledge than me could look at this, I would be very grateful!!! :beer:

Thanks in advance

As far as I can see, the upper floor joists are laid on a 45x145 beam in the wall you want to tear down. But feel free to get more opinions :)

That wall is load-bearing.
