Hello
I intend to move the entrance to the kattvind so that it aligns with the kattvind and does not build into a square meter in the room, see picture.
Door and corner in attic space, with insulation and building materials nearby, discussing potential structural changes.
Are there any risks whatsoever with tearing down this small box (probably a plank wall), could it be part of the load-bearing structure?
If so, is it enough if I support the roof in the extension of the current kattvind wall?
 
You can never be completely sure just by looking at a picture, but I believe the extension is only made as a wardrobe and that you can tear it down without risk.

What does the roof truss construction look like at the knee wall?
Is it possible to get a picture from inside the knee wall space?
 
Very hard to believe that it would be load-bearing, then it should look the same in all four corners. I also have a similar extension in the attic, on mine it's enough to knock on it to hear that it can't be any load-bearing material. If you open the door, how thick is the wall?

I don't know how it looks in the attic, but inside the knee wall:
Attic space showing exposed wood sheathing with cracked surface texture.
Just raw boards.

2 corners on the same long side have the same design. Seems to be the same design as all walls, 2 x 5 plank with tretex on both sides.
