INTRODUCTIONA lintel is a structural member placed over an openingin a wall. In the case of a Brick masonry wall, lintels mayconsist of reinforced Brick masonry , Brick masonry arches,precast concrete or structural steel shapes. Regardlessof the material chosen for the lintel, its prime function is tosupport the loads above the opening, and it must bedesigned eliminate the possibility of structur-al cracks in the wall above these openings, the structuraldesign of the lintels should not involve the use of "rule-of-thumb" methods, or the arbitrary selection of structuralsections without careful analysis of the loads to be carriedand calculation of the stresses developed. Many of thecracks which appear over openings in masonry walls aredue to excessive deflection of the lintels resulting fromimproper or inadequate Technical Notespresents the considerations tobe addressed if structural steel lintels are to be used.
