Schach Placed Before the Walls

Question

After we placed the schach on the sukkah and tied it well, we noticed that we forgot to make the third wall. Do we need to remove the schach now after completing the wall?

Answer

Shalom Rav,

If the third wall was not built at all, there is no choice but to build the third wall and then shake the schach and place it again. However, if there was a height of one tefach [= 10 cm] built on the third wall in the part adjacent to the schach, [such as if there is a frame holding the schach at the height of a tefach], it is possible to complete the wall to the full height without dismantling the frame.
