Hiya,
I'm laying out an interior wall for our yurt. This will be around the 3/4 bathroom. Essentially, the wall is a 7*7 right angle, one fourth of a circle as the yurt is round. The wall can't be attached to the ceiling or outside of the yurt wall, so it is only attached to the floor. It isn't load bearing, but one side will have the water pipes. It also has to have a "roof" in order to keep the bathroom vapors contained so the fan can draw them out. Anyway, I'm not totally sure how to do the top of the wall, since it slopes up. Should I make a standard box frame and put the additional angle on top? Should I maybe put a notched piece across where the top plate would be? I can probably do okay with whatever I come up with, but your advice would be quite helpful. See the attached drawing, tis kinda the gist of it. There's two sections, they'll form a right angle at the taller side, and one section will have a door in it. Cheers!
