S/K-110 - Standard Load Bearing Cavity Wall Lintel

S/K-110 - Standard Load Bearing Cavity Wall Lintel

This standard load bearing cavity wall lintel has been made to support loads for cavity walls which have a width between 110mm to 125mm. This lintel has a 95mm wide outer leaf which is suitable for standard brickwork. The inner leaf is 100mm wide which is suitable for standard blockwork.

This range of standard load bearing lintels are available in 150mm increments starting at 750mm up to 4800mm, which allow for load bearing over a wide range of opening lengths for various applications such as for windows or doors.
Please note: To install the lintel correctly, a 150mm end bearing is required at each end of the lintel. For example: if the opening length is 1200mm then an additional 300mm would need to be added to the length of the lintel to accommodate the end bearings.

This range of standard load bearing lintels has been made from high quality pre-galvanised mild steel and satisfy the thermal performance requirements of England and Wales’ part L of the building regulations, Northern Ireland’s part F and Scotland’s technical handbook, section 6.

In order for this lintel to support the specified loads below, the lintel will need to be installed correctly.

The figures also take into account the different loading types which are common in traditional cavity wall construction. These lintels have been tested as a composite unit with surrounding masonry and have been built in accordance with BS EN 1996-2:2006. These figures have been acquired through testing in accordance with the requirements of standards BS 5977 Part 2: 1983 and BS EN 845-2:2003
Differential Total UDL kN 3:1 (up to 75% loading on the inner leaf)
Differential Total UDL kN 19:1 (up to 95% loading on the inner leaf)
