I don’t need to cut into the party walls or floors. The addition loading will however be applied to my part of the structure, and down through my existing load-bearing walls/floors to the walls beneath. If I don’t physically cut into any structure (or undermine it) do I assume the extra loading does not come under the party wall act? Obviously the strength of the existing floors and walls were taken into account when the loft conversion was designed.
