Keep in mind they need to be centered on the connector bungs; offsetting them for aesthetic reasons may create support issues and should not be done without engineering approval. If that's not true, I apologize but that's what the design invokes. | |
Jan 14, 2020 at 14:30 | comment | added | Ecnerwal | I think that not having overhangs is asking for trouble with leaks. I once went to a museum exhibit about Frank Lloyd Wright's buildings and furniture which got into some of the "real life problems" with undeniably "nice to look at" but "difficult to live with" details that included roof leaks, unstable chairs, and structural issues. Your design already seems to have an overhang between floors - perhaps put a parapet on the roof and shove it out another meter or so to continue that look (and give you some outdoor space on top when it's nice.) | |
