Parallel wall along rafters - Load-bearing?

[Säterkvist]

Hello,

Once again, one of the most common questions on the forum. Believe me, I've searched extensively on the forum to find a good answer - without success.

We are planning to open up part of the kitchen wall during our kitchen renovation in our Hjältevadshus from '68.
I am attaching some pictures that can clarify the planned intervention.

Are there any experts who, with the help of this information, can conclude whether the kitchen wall is load-bearing or not?

Thanks in advance!

Does the wall really run parallel to the roof trusses? No more drawings or sectional drawing?

Unfortunately not. I have requested extracts of construction drawings (which I hope they have) from the building committee but have not yet received any response. I only have facade and floor plans right now, unfortunately.

I just went up and took photos (the one attached) in the attic and could confirm that the wall runs as I describe. However, I have not lifted the insulation to see if there is any flooring between the rafters.

How did it go with this? I'm in a similar situation.

It turned out that the wall was not load-bearing. I hired two carpenters, with engineering training, both of whom could confirm that it was okay to demolish.
