Interesting, I have never seen the gable wall built ahead of the roof direction.

For us, it was a tough job—measuring, whether male or female, marking, cutting to size, carrying the bricks up, and fitting them tightly against the beams.

The procedure you are using seems much easier for the masons.

PS: What does the last picture show?

Your recommendation is simply not feasible.

This is not "my" recommendation; I am just relaying this information. My recommendation was to discuss the matter with your screed installer. In case of doubt, they probably have more expertise than an architect who encounters KNX buildings with this amount of cabling at best once every three years.

As far as I remember, it should be sufficient if the conduit routes are completely covered by an additional layer (insulation). This follows from your floor structure plan.

These are the roof tiles shown in the last photo.

My wife visited the site in the meantime.

And that is exactly why the walls are built or poured first, and then the roof is installed.

As mentioned, I have never seen the gable being built first and the roof only afterwards. But then again, it’s not the first time that things are done a bit differently up here compared to down there.

The supports are gone on the ground floor. The photo is slightly distorted due to the panoramic mode.
Please do not discuss the puddle; the roof is not yet watertight.
