Not particularly woodworking but, some 35 years ago, we had PVC double glazing installed to replace the 1930s era Crittall single glazed windows. These are now showing their age and are not as efficient as they once were especially at the back of the house which faces north-west and gets the prevailing winds. As such we are looking to replace them. Most of the replacements will be like for like except for the half-landing. SWMBO would like to convert this into a bay window, either rectangular or triangular. In my view, this may be somewhat complicated but would welcome any thoughts from those with a building background.
These are pictures of the interior and exterior of the window
My concern is how far one could cantilever out without some form of support and, if a support is needed, how would this be tied into the building?
