I'm going to renovate my villa and tear down a wall between the boiler room and the recreation room and wonder if anyone here can tell from the drawing if it's a load-bearing wall? The masonry wall in the picture is built with brick. The wall I want to remove appears to be made of lightweight concrete.
 
  • Floor plan showing the layout of a house basement with highlighted brick wall and lightweight concrete wall intended for removal.
  • Blueprint of a house section showing wall dimensions between floors, with a focus on a potential non-load-bearing wall for renovation.
B
don't think it is load-bearing
 
No, that wall is not load-bearing.
 
:) Thanks for the quick responses
 
No more statements??
 
The wall seems thin, about 10cm, right? Normally no masonry walls under 17 cm are load-bearing. Especially if it's lightweight concrete.
 
The walls that should be load-bearing are the one built between the garage and the boiler room and the one located in the middle of the house where the boiler room door is located. The wall you are referring to is not load-bearing.
