Mikey Posted March 5, 2024 Posted March 5, 2024 A tricky one on site… BC have said we need a 50mm arched cavity lintel above this arched window. Struggling to find a supplier! Anyone else encountered the same problem?
Mr Punter Posted March 5, 2024 Posted March 5, 2024 Can you just form the arch in brickwork and use a normal timber frame lintel with cavity tray above?

BC inspector wasn't keen on this as a solution over the phone. He's coming out Thursday so I will try again with that solution!
George Posted March 15, 2024 Posted March 15, 2024 Tried Catnic specials? https://catnic.com/products/lintels/special-lintels Else get a steel fabricator to make one.
Mikey Posted March 19, 2024 Author Posted March 19, 2024 Thanks for all your comments. IG Lintels came up trumps, supplying me with an arch lintel (1360mm SPAN; 600mm RISE) for £260.
