Hi everyone,
To visually separate our living room from the dining area, I’m currently planning to build a raised platform. Since I’m a carpenter, my idea is to construct a subframe using KVH (timber beams), cover it with OSB boards, and then apply a standard screed layer on top. The main reason for this is that the underfloor heating needs to work there as well; otherwise, we won’t be able to heat the room properly! (The house is still in the shell stage, so all options are open.)
The cavity between the KVH beams, which will be arranged at a 90° angle to each other, will be filled with Rockwool to help absorb some sound.
Does anyone have any constructive suggestions for improvement? Critical feedback is also very welcome!
Best regards
Schnail
