Sydney’s Leading Manufacturer For Concrete Lintels

Concrete lintels are high strength lintels manufactured to suit standard brick construction. They’re ideal for use in highly corrosive environments like coastal areas, being much less susceptible to humidity and corrosion. Easily rendered, lined with plasterboard or external sheetings, it’s a prime alternative to steel lintels. Concrete lintels are generally available in heights equal to one or two courses of brickwork. When you need superior structural capacity, choose concrete lintels from Sydney Steel Supplies made from high-strength concrete for any construction.

Why Choose Concrete Lintels For Your Construction

The load carrying capacity of concrete lintels increases dramatically when composite beam action from the brickwork is considered. This composite beam strength rises with the number of brick courses on top of the lintel. Made from high-strength concrete under strict quality control, concrete lintels are suitable for use in pier and beam construction. It’s especially tough for new building foundations or re-cladding of existing structures. Alternatively, it can also be used to create an upstand hob on concrete slabs. Sydney Steel Supplies’ concrete lintels are always compliant with relevant Australian Building Codes (BCA) and Australian Standards (AS).

Sydney Steel Supplies are verified, qualified experts in the sale of concrete lintels, steel lintels, southern steel, and many variations of structural steel. 

Concrete Lintels Installation Process

Typically, concrete lintels are installed by a builder or bricklayer. The lintels have to be placed with its rough side facing up. This positioning is a must to provide a proper key into the mortar above. The concrete lintels then should be propped at intervals that do not exceed 1500mm until the mortar has matured.
