High Performance Lintels for harsh environments

L1 type lintels have a top hat profile which offers distinct advantages in terms of durability and structural characteristics including:
dpc

The maintenance of the integrity of the wall structure and its thermal properties through uniform and continuous bricklaying the upstand of the lintel sits within the cavity;
Expanded polystyrene Easy curtain bracket fixing. No batten required

Excellent thermal efficiency as a direct result of its design which, with the addition of an expanded polystyrene infill (standard on allL1 lintels) , provides a U value through the lintel of significantly less than 0.33 W/m2 K; Reduced maintenance costs through the elimination of cracked plaster due to the differential expansion of dissimilar materials associated with Box section lintels. Semi-pierced slots on the inner flange give an excellent key for the plaster finish.

To achieve the loading figures shown, the L7 lintel must be secured with restraining clips and a block /batten (not supplied) must be used to prevent lateral deflection (twist) during the building stage. A single block/batten 300mm long at mid span will be sufficient. Restraining clips should be fixed with 3.3 x 50mm galvanised nails at no more than 500mm centres each side of mid span. Clips should be positioned with their vertical centres at the top of the lintel to allow for lintel movement and shrinkage of timber frame.

Designed to provide a quick and safe method of spanning small openings (up to 1000mm) in internal walls, IG internal lintels are both economical and easy to store, carry and use. When a minimum height of 152mm of brick/blockwork with well-filled joints of cement mortar is built over the lintel, the construction will be load-bearing for normal domestic building purposes after curing. The loading capacity of the lintel can be increased by increasing the height of the walling built across it.

Lintel Soffit Cladding

Stainless Steel Lintels


High Performance for harsh environments

Manufactured from rigid PVC to match UPVC window frames, the IG lintel soffit cladding is designed to clip over the front flange of the external wall lintel to provide an aesthetically pleasing appearance to the exposed outer flange. Supplied in white (type SCW) and brown (type SCB), soffit cladding is available in lengths to meet all standard openings, for example a 1500 mm length is available to fit a structural opening width of 1200 mm. The cladding simply clips into place - no special tools are required.

loading. Masonry above lintels should be allowed to cure before applying floor or roof loads. If this is not achievable, temporary support in the form of props should be used. NHBC guidelines propose no greater than a 1m span for props during construction. 7. When installing concrete floor units or other heavy components, care should be taken to avoid shock loading. Temporary support in the form of props is advisable if there is a limited amount of masonry to the outer leaf. Pre-cast floor units should be laid on a mortar bed to avoid load concentrations at high points in the masonry. Floor units should not be dragged into position.

10. Masonry should not overhang any flange by more than 25mm. 11. The lintel toe must project beyond the window/door frame and it is recommended that a flexible sealing compound is used between the underside of the lintel flange and the frame to avoid moisture penetration. 12. When the underside of a lintel is exposed, its appearance can be enhanced by the addition of lintel soffit cladding, supplied in white and brown, or by the application of a good quality etch primer and paint after installation.

In accordance with BS 5628 and NHBC requirements, all external wall lintels MUST be installed with a flexible damp proof course with the exception of those adequately protected by an eaves overhang or similar form of protection. Stop ends should be provided as specified by BS 5628 Part 3 1985 and the NHBC to avoid moisture entering the cavity near the reveals. Proprietary stop ends should be used or alternatively the DPC should extend to the edge of the front toe and 50 - 150mm beyond the end of the lintel (depending on coursing) to allow formation of an integral stop end at a suitable perp joint. Weepholes should be used in the external masonry leaf to drain moisture away from the cavity. A minimum of 2 weepholes should be provided for each lintel, generally at 450mm centres. Weepholes can be formed with proprietary weep vents or by leaving perp joints open. Ixx - Represents the moment of inertia or the second moment of area and is a characteristic of the lintel shape.

Cavity Trays
A UNIQUE SINGLE ELEMENT CAVITY TRAY SYSTEM
GABLE ABUTMENT SYSTEM When a stepped or staggered gable abutment is formed the status of the external skin below the roof line changes to that of an internal skin. Accordingly, every gable abutment must be constructed so as to prevent dampness and rainwater from penetrating below the abutting roof line. The IG Gable Abutment Cavity Tray forms a stepped cavity dpc which is incorporated into the building during bricklaying. The completed structure is ready to receive roof lead flashing in the conventional way. WHERE TO USE THE IG CAVITY TRAY - TYPE GA Where a new lean-to extension meets an existing building, Manufactured from polypropylene, the IG Gable Abutment Cavity Tray is available in three sizes to suit all roof pitches up to 60. It is suitable for use in all brick, block and timberframed constructions, the large bridging piece catering for cavity widths from 50mm to 100mm. Supplied flat, the pre-creased trays allow for easy on-site folding to the required shape - catchment, left and right hand or ridge tray. A locating lip facilitates the accurate placement of trays during bricklaying. CALCULATING QUANTITIES The single-element system makes the calculation of quantities very simple. Whether you are building with bricks or blocks the rule is the same: you require one cavity tray per course per slope. On a double slope roof this calculation will give you an extra tray that can be used to lengthen the ridge tray if required. SIZES AND ROOF PITCHES The IG Gable Abutment Cavity Tray is available in three sizes GABLE ABUTMENT THE IG CAVITY TRAY - TYPE RFT Available off-the-shelf in flat-packs, the IG Refurbishment Tray combines ease of handling, transportation and use with complete effectiveness. It meets all current Building Regulations and NHBC requirements. Manufactured from polypropylene, the IG Refurbishment Tray is 620mm wide by 280mm deep and is suitable for use in all brick, block and timber-framed constructions. The large bridging piece caters for cavity widths from 50mm to 100mm. Supplied flat, the pre-creased trays allow for easy on-site folding to the required shape including forming left and right hand end stops. A locating lip facilitates accurate placement

that are folded on site to form right-angled corners. The trays are pre-creased and incorporate adjustment for 50mm, 75mm or 100mm cavity widths and incorporate mastic sealant strips for overlapping areas. REFURBISHMENT SYSTEM The IG Refurbishment Cavity Trays System has been specifically developed to facilitate both the insertion of a new tray into an existing wall and the repair or alteration of an existing damp proof course.

the original external wall becomes an internal partition below the roof line and must be protected from dampness and the penetration or rainwater. Similarly, when a flat roof is resurfaced with added insulation, or is reconstructed as an inverted roof with top paving, the roof level may be raised and thus require the skirting and its corresponding damp proof course to be lifted. In addition, existing cavity trays which have been poorly constructed or have rotted allowing water to leak through must be replaced.
