High-Strength Concrete Lintel Guide

The document provides specifications for high-strength prestressed concrete lintels, detailing their applications, loading capacities, and installation requirements. It includes load-span tables with dimensions, weights, and uniform distributed loads (UDL) for various lintel sizes. Important notes emphasize checking loadings, correct installation orientation, and the availability of longer lintel lengths for specific applications.

ALWAYS CHECK LOADINGS AGAINST OUR normally allow. These longer lengths lintels
LOAD-SPAN TABLE should be used over a series of openings

INSTALLATION NOTES the maximum clear span and NOT simply
For general installation notes please refer supported at each end (i.e. all 70mm
to page 67. deep lintels must not clear span more than
1800mm).
Additional installation requirements for lintels • Lintels are marked TOP and must be used in
supporting concrete floor units the correct orientation
• Check that the correct lintel has been
installed. ABBREVIATIONS:
• Minimum recommended lintel depth is UDL – Uniform Distributed Load (Serviceable)
140mm in order to absorb the shock loading RM – Resistance Moment (Serviceable)
of concrete floor. Precast flooring units should
be laid on a mortar bed across the whole
wall width and should not be dragged over
supports.
