Kitzur Shulchan Aruch, Siman 134 Part 1/2

AI summary (may contain mistakes)

The Kitzur wants sukkah walls complete and strong, so that the wind neither moves them nor blows out the candles. From there the Kitzur turns to the schach: what it is made of, how much shade it gives, and how thick it can be. Last comes dofen akuma, the bent wall, applied to boards laid beside the walls of a built sukkah.

Key points

• When money is short, the Kitzur prefers three complete walls over four incomplete ones.
• The Kitzur bars sitting under a three-tefach air gap in the schach, which sometimes invalidates the sukkah.
• The Kitzur bars sitting or sleeping beneath invalid boards beside the wall, even only four tefachim wide.
