Large house with raised ceilings on sloping block. Shouldnt be too difficult if designed correctly. For raised or raking ceiling...you have a number of options to consider they influence, structurals, thermal, airflow & natural ventilation, acoustics, lighting,etc,etc. This part is always difficult to get your head around but simulations can enhance accuracy and help with the clients undertstanding, IMO most designers get it totally wrong from an engineering/environmental perspective.eg, Architectural packages that are used only do simple thermal bridging and insulation through building elements, open a window (to allow for natural free ventilation) and basically their results go out the door, lol, doesnt anyone open windows any more! For sloping blocks you have many options, Stepdowns within the slab, retaining walls around the perimeter of the block or house and combinations of all, these have cost implcations, pro,cons, etc,etc if you need some advice put up some images..goodluck Designer,Engineer (Civil,Const & Envir),Builder,Concrete & Masonry Contract.Struct Repairs Really tight at the top of the stairs- how to get furniture into those rooms?
