Wall demolished

[Jeppe733]

Hey! Pretty bad at this but I've opened up an entrance so it became 40cm larger! But I've been going back and forth on whether the wall is load-bearing or not! The wall is about 100mm thick and the studs that were in place were 45x75mm! I can upload a picture of how the ceiling looks. Pretty strange question but I need to know so I can sleep.

That looks like truss roof rafters, so no walls are load-bearing on the floor directly below the attic. That being said, it doesn't mean you can remove all walls; some have a stabilizing function, but making an opening 40 cm wider should be risk-free.

Not often, but now I need to correct you, 😃, no interior walls are load-bearing. Exterior walls are load-bearing.

Det där ser ut som fackverkstakstolar och då är inga väggar bärande på våningsplanet direkt under vinden.
Därmed inte sagt att man kan ta bort alla väggar, en del har en stabiliserande funktion, men att göra en öppning 40 cm större bör vara riskfritt

Tack! Det ända jag vet att från den tidigare öppningen så har det suttit ett fönster mellan kök och vardagsrum! Dock förra ägaren gipsade igen den

Inte ofta men nu behöver jag rätta dig, 😃, inga innerväggar är bärande. Ytterväggar är bärande.

Så allt är lungt med andra ord? 😅 kommer från en nybliven ägare till hus

Not often but now I need to correct you, 😃, no inner walls are load-bearing. Outer walls are load-bearing.

Yes, of course, but it didn't sound like Jeppe was tearing down outer walls.

So everything is calm, in other words? 😅 coming from a new homeowner

Yes
You will probably find the forum very useful every now and then.

Yes
You will probably find the forum useful from time to time.

Thank you! Might be needed in the future 😃

Yes, of course, but it didn't sound like Jeppe was about to tear down external walls.

He mentioned entrance, sometimes you get surprised. 😁.

Good luck as a homeowner, Jeppe
