BUILDING ACT 1984 - SECTION 16(10)(a)

摘要

The building work to which this determination relates is a proposed roof space conversion at a new second floor level to a four bedroom, two storey, semi-detached house. The ground floor plan area, including a single storey extension to the rear, is approximately 12m X 14m in depth. The roof is of traditional tile construction with a roof ridge running between the party wall and a hip to the flank wall. The proposed loft conversion will comprise two bedrooms and a separate bathroom - the overall dimensions of the area being approximately 8m X 5.25m. Ceiling height for this new floor area will be created by breaking open approximately 6.5m or 50 percent of the length of the rear roof slope at sill height and the construction of a dormer section containing two separate windows - one to each of the bedrooms -spaced 1.7m apart. The roof slope to the front elevation is to remain unchanged.
