I'm editing drawings (in the absence of my architect, who is poorly), to widen the cavity between block leaves from 100mm to 150mm. I noticed a couple of descrepencies in and around the window reveals (1) window position different between the lintol & cill (see image 1) (2) block return at return different between the blockwork and the detail drawings (see image 2 & 3) My questions, please (1) should the block returns be on the inner or outer leaf at reveals, or can I choose? (I have a preference for outer leaf, as there is a 140mm inner leaf on back wall - but maybe this is not the only consideration) (2) should windows be fixed to inner or outer leaf, or can I choose? (3) when I widen the cavity to 150mm, there will be some of the insulation of steel insulated lintol exposed - can I skim this, or is there further detail required? TIA, James IMAGE 1 IMAGE 2 - Blockwork showing return on outer leaf at reveals IMAGE 3 - Jamb Details showing return on outer leaf at reveals
