Aerial rig in house

[Dement0r]

Hi there

 

I am looking for advice please. We live in a 1950s council house in Lincolnshire, and we're looking at mounting an aerial rig in our front room for our 8 year old daughter. She currently weighs approx. 26kg and will be doing aerial hoop and silks like in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsm3YNWAs9k

 

 

Our proposed solution is to put a 2630mm, 42.4mm galvanised steel tube wall-to-wall, secured with M6x75 concrete bolts, as shown in the images here  https://photos.app.goo.gl/aetVwKYPtDNSzSUT8. The blue wall is a supporting interior brick wall. My main concern is the other side, where the bay window is. My understanding is that this is steel reinforced concrete lintel. I am concerned that these are obviously designed to hold a static load, however obviously the aerial rig will have a lot of movement, and I am wondering whether it will be suitable to mount the steel bar in the brickwork above, or if we risk damaging the structural integrity of our house?

 

Thanks you in advance

Sorry I am the first to chime in. I think you need a Structural Engineer and an 'invasive survey' (expose enough of the lintel to see exactly what it is so the SE can calculate - not guess.) My (definitely non-SE) feeling would be that whatever dead load that lintel is designed for it was not designed for the live load you refer to.
