Concrete lintels 900mm
Supreme Concrete Grey High-Performance Prestressed Lintel, Size: 65x100x900mm
Concrete lintels 900mm are one of the most common types of lintels used in construction. The reason why concrete lintels are often used is that they are able to support heavy loads and larger spans.
A lintel is a type of beam that spans openings such as portals, doors, windows, and fireplaces. It can be a decorative architectural element or a combined ornamented/structural item. In the case of windows, the bottom span is referred to as a sill, but, unlike a lintel, does not serve to bear a load to ensure the integrity of the wall. Modern-day lintels may be made using prestressed concrete and are also referred to as beams in beam-and-block slabs or as ribs in rib-and-block slabs. These prestressed concrete lintels and blocks can serve as components that are packed together and propped to form a suspended-floor concrete slab.
An arch functions as a curved lintel.
