Monolithic reinforced concrete lintels.
Monolithic reinforced concrete lintel may be a separate beam covering an opening or a ceiling beam appropriately reinforced with an opening. These beams are made in molds (formwork). From the outside, these lintels should be covered with insulating material and cladding serving as texture, e.g.. brick. Rods with a diameter are inserted into every second or third joint of the brick 4,5 do 6 mm falling into concrete lintels.
Monolithic reinforced concrete lintel can be made using forms in the posts of YTONG autoclaved aerated concrete blocks. The figure below shows the lintel and blocks, which play the role of forms and warming.
