Hello everyone!
As some users have requested before, I’m now starting a new thread with the current planning of our detached house, which is about to be finalized.
These are the preliminary drawings for the building permit / planning permission application, and I have one last chance to review them and point out any issues.
It still seems to me that there is less than 1.20m (4 feet) of space between the two wardrobes in the dressing room. Or am I seeing this wrong? Apparently, the rooms on the left and right were overlooked and not adjusted accordingly.
Two Velux ceiling spotlights are still planned to illuminate the upper floor hallway.
In the basement, on the right side in the upper room, a window similar to the one on the left basement side is an option.
We still haven’t decided on the T30 fire-rated door to the garage, even though it is shown in the plans. Most likely, for safety reasons and the limited use of the kitchen at the other end of the house, we will eventually forgo it.
User 11ant pointed out that the right window in child’s room 2 is suboptimally positioned. However, this could still be changed after submitting the building permit / planning permission application. Our architect thinks moving the window to the left would negatively affect the house’s exterior appearance. We’ll have to see about that.

You should have chosen that one, because he is right there.I can still change. I probably have to, because due to the mistake with the emergency exit that I had already suspected, he has effectively knocked himself out. As a result, he has lost all professional respect from the client and also from the contracting party (the opposing side). That is not a foundation to achieve anything together that is well-founded. Have you looked at his report that I emailed you? Or would you prefer a publicly appointed and sworn expert for building damage certified by the Chamber of Commerce? There are several in the region who offer construction supervision.
I at least know the other one already, but back then it bothered me that after the actual discussion he got me involved in a conversation about my work, and that time then appeared on the invoice. I really can’t stand that.
Will another expert be able to get properly familiar with the case?
From the existing report, it’s really only the part about the roof ventilation and insulation (hand-drawn sketch) that worries me. Everything else is trivial.
It’s especially frustrating that you now have to spend hundreds of euros on such poor work. I guess it’s unavoidable despite the deficiencies in the content.

@Otus11:
Is there a DIN standard for the parapet flashing? If so, I’d ask about it and refer to that.FDRL, section 4.6
At least, it’s a recommended guideline.
Try googling “parapet slope”
That gives good results.
You should also skim through the entire FDRL, especially the part about usable roofs. Although that is only marginally relevant here.

Is at least a recommended regulation. WtfiA (who the f... is Alice) – the flat roof guideline is probably meant in full words

But it took me 10 seconds.
The visible participants in forums are usually just the tip of the iceberg, which is why I have a soft spot for silent readers and those using the search function. For them, full-word terms often work better than abbreviations (unless they are very common, like ETICS, which hardly anyone spells out in full).

R.Hotzenplotz17 Jun 2018 12:49Is it common practice to route water connections around a corner? In the utility room, our washing machine and dryer are planned to be placed along the right exterior wall. However, today I was surprised to see that the connections are actually installed on the wall at the bottom of the plan. This means the hose would have to be routed around the corner, and whenever you enter, you would be facing the corner with the connections directly. That can’t be the intended solution.
Regarding the unfortunate situation with the patio doors and window, we noticed today that despite having the same dimension specifications in the construction plans, the fixed glass panel is 10cm (4 inches) wider than the door panels (86cm (34 inches) vs. 76cm (30 inches)). My wife saw this for the first time today and was very disappointed to see how small the elements are on the upper floor.
