you might be able to sneak in an extra 100mm on the ridgebeam. depends on how lenient the building control is but i've seen people flagrantly taking advantage of that.

Isn't that a bit of a risk though - Can't they make you undo it?

AirTime in reply to @NotThamesWater

they can, but the building control comes round at various stages of the build. so you could raise it 100mm then ask them to come round and declare it's ok. it's a risk you're right, but i'd kick myself if i didn't go for it. i did and it paid off ;-)
