I have tried reading in various forums and understood that it is difficult to make statements about the load-bearing capacity of walls in a wooden house. Our house was built in 1927 (an extension was done in 2008, but I don't think it's relevant to my question).
We wish to take down a small interior wall, but since it is located on the top floor under the attic and runs in the direction of the roof ridge, we are unsure if it might still be load-bearing. We have torn down the treetex and wallpaper, and the wall sways a bit when you pull it with a crowbar.
These are the plans we have access to, and it is the red wall we wish to remove. For your information, the blue wall has been removed previously.
The extension done in 2008 has been illustrated in orange below, in case the new larger roof might affect the conclusion.
I am also attaching a couple of pictures where you can see the wall and how it looks at the bottom against the floor. You can see that the planks rest on the floor and do not extend downward. Does anyone have any wise advice for us? Thanks in advance!
