Lintels for Curves (curved-on-plan)

We have dedicated sections designed specifically for curved-on-plan applications, to suit most common wall sections.

We have also published a load capacity guide to assist designers with selecting an appropriate section for the application.

Note that depending on the angle of curvature, these lintels frequently require one or more posts for support, otherwise they may over balance - check will our technical department if unsure.

We are not limited to simple radii either; we can manufacture curves of any shape and direction, including straight sections.
Be sure curved lintels are adequately support by posts, cantilevered bearings or support from above as required.

'RS' SECTION CURVED LINTELS

Simple support for shorter spans, or for longer spans if the lintel can be restrained against twisting along it's length.
Don't forget to allow for a gap between the lintel and the masonry on tighter curves.
RANGE APPLICATION
RS17 Height 174mm, Standard Duty, 4.0mm steel
RS21 Height 211mm, Medium Duty, 6.0mm steel

'RSH' SECTION CURVED LINTELS

Our Heavy Duty lintel for either single or double leaf masonry applications.
RANGE APPLICATION
RSH17 Height 174mm, Very Heavy Duty, 6.0mm steel

 


Note; The inner is usually a rolled mild steel 160x80 RHS with a stainless soffit, so you still have the benefit of stainless steel exposed, with the low cost & short lead time of mild steel RHS. We can also offer a stainless steel box on request where the application requires, but lead time is longer (can be 3-6 weeks) and cost is greater than for mild steel.

Standard lintels for double leaf masonry walls.
Don't forget to allow extra room for the lintel web in the masonry on tigher curves.
RANGE APPLICATION

RD21

Height 206mm, Medium Duty, 6.0mm steel
