Our builders are about to start work on our loft conversion. We have planning permission for two 180cm wide front dormers and we're keen that the sides / cheeks of these are as slim as possible to maximise the window space within.
Our architect has specified the following:
"Clad with clay plain tile hanging on battens on Tyvek SUPRO Plus on 12mm WBP Ply lining fixed back to 100 x 50 studs @ 400mm c/c. 100mm Celotex GA3000 between studs. Holes drilled in ply to improve ventilation"
The local building control inspector has accepted these specifications as meeting appropriate regulations.
I'd be very grateful for any recommendations of alternative materials / solutions which would still meet the regulations but allow us to reclaim more space?
Thanks very much.
