Hello everyone,
We are planning to build a complete semi-detached house with a granny flat.
Now, one provider is telling me that this is not possible because of the plinth height (0.5m (20 inches))?
Could that be true?
The eaves height would be 6.5m (21 feet) or 12m (39 feet) available.
Thanks for your help and ideas.

I think I’ll ask the authorities directly.In my opinion, the most reasonable question would be whether, when integrating the building into the semi-detached housing area, you would be willing to combine the two plots and then allow three or four housing units on the entire combined property.
Regarding the fundamental consequences concerning the number of full floors, site coverage ratio, floor area ratio, and so on, you will likely be referred to your own research (or to an architect). Local authorities do not provide active advice to builders.

Good morning,
What made us and the architect suspicious yesterday is the following. In WA 2, two full stories are allowed with a building height of 6.5 m (21.3 ft), which seems reasonable. However, in WA 3, there are five plots with townhouses and semi-detached houses that allow a building height of 10 m (32.8 ft), but still only two full stories.
What purpose do you see in this?

In WA 2, two full stories are allowed with a ridge height of 6.5 m (21 feet), so that fits. Now, in WA 3, there are 5 lots [...] that allow a ridge height of 10 m (33 feet), but still only 2 full stories. What purpose do you see here?The one I see at first glance, and you will too after some more practice reading plans: with the same 12 m (39 feet) ridge height, especially with shed roofs, a roof pitch of 18° logically results in a higher eave height than a pitch of 42°.

I understand that so far. But if I build a shed roof with an 18-degree slope, I am still only allowed to build 2 full stories, right? In that case, I would have a room height of 5 meters (16 feet) if I make full use of the building height limit of 12 meters (39 feet), correct?
"Or" is correct 🙂
Both measurements are maximum values. The eaves height is sufficient for two stories without sloped ceilings. In the attic, with a house depth of 14 m (46 feet), you would reach about 4.5 m (15 feet) at the ridge if you use the full 18° roof pitch, resulting in a ridge height of approximately 11 m (36 feet). As Uwe Seeler said so nicely in the C-Tel commercial: "my wife did the math." 🙂
