I have a question about setback distances for roof overhangs.
If the exterior wall (with a roof overhang of max. 50 cm (20 inches)) is three meters (10 feet) from the property line, and the roof is extended down over a section of about two meters (6.5 feet) at the entrance as a "door canopy," like in the following image, is the minimum setback still maintained, or does the outer edge of this partial roof extension count as the setback distance?

And how would it be if an "attached canopy" was installed in front of the entrance door?

Just google for Niedersächsische Bauordnung, Section 5, Clause 3Thank you!
Entrance canopies, front door steps, balconies, other projections and protruding building parts are allowed, provided that these building parts do not exceed one third of the width of the respective exterior wall in total, and may protrude no more than 1.50 m (5 feet), but no more than one third,
That would be the crucial passage. So, if I have an exterior wall length of exactly 13.365 m (44 feet) and a setback of 3 m (10 feet), would that mean I can let the roof project up to 4.45 m (14.6 feet) in length, extending no more than 1 m (3.3 feet) beyond the wall?
