Hello everyone.
I would need input from a designer or someone knowledgeable on the subject.
We have bought a house from 1963 with a Siporex floor slab 150mm and Siporex frame.
It is a single-story house with a basement.
Now I am going to completely renovate the ground floor and am considering sewer installations, etc., for the bathroom.
1. Can we cut down the floor drain into the slab to avoid lowering the ceiling height, which is currently a maximum of 240 cm?
2. Can we groove the slab to remove the sewer to the right place in the basement? I was thinking about grooving a straight path for a few meters, then lowering the sewer and casting as reinforcement. Directly underneath, we have a recreation room where we would prefer not to have a sewer in the ceiling.
Regards
