| ==Number of walls of the Sukkah==
| | [[Category:Holidays]] |
| # 3 walls one being a tefach | | [[Category:Sukkot]] |
| # walls must be 7 x7
| |
| # height at least 10 tefachim
| |
| # If the walls are made of polls or strings only in the horizontal direction or only in the vertical direction then one must have 4 wall complete walls, however, if there are 3 walls and a Tefach for the fourth wall it's a doubt whether it's acceptable. <ref>Halichot Shlomo (7:2 , pg 98) </ref>
| |
| # The walls must be built within 3 Tefachim of the ground. <ref>Halichot Shlomo (7:5, pg 100) </ref>
| |
| ===Arrangment of the walls===
| |
| # If one has two walls facing one another and the third is four tefachim it must be within 3 tefachim of one side and within 3 of the other or at least have a tzurat hapetach to the second side. <ref> S"A 630:3 </ref>

| ==Building a Sukkah in the street==
| |
| # If there's no room on private property to build a Sukkah and the city leaders (mayor) give permission, it's permissible to build it in the public street however one should make sure that the Sukkah doesn't to block walkers (traffic). <ref>Halichot Shlomo (7:11, pg 109) </ref>

| ==Materials for walls of Sukkah==
| |
| # metal, wood…
| |
| # what about canvas or plastic tarp? What about tying strings for lavud?
| |
| # Many authorities hold that plastic curtains (tarp, canvas) are unfit for walls of a Sukkah, while others permit. <Ref> Rav Ovadyah Yosef in Chazon Ovadyah (pg 1-5) and Rav Shlomo Zalman Aurerbach in Halichot Shlomo (Sukkah 7:1 pg 97) hold that plastic curtains that sway in the wind even slightly are unfit for walls of a Sukkah. However, Rav Moshe Feinstein in Sh”t Igrot Moshe 5:40 permits if the curtains are thick and there’s poles. </ref>
