Brick Wall Reinforcement for Window Lintel Repairs

How to use Twistfix helical bars as brick wall reinforcement to repair window lintel failures.
Stainless steel reinforcement bars are grouted into walls to form a reinforced brick beam or wall lintel. The brickwork reinforcement represents the upper and lower flanges of a deep masonry beam to form a wall lintel an to support brickwork above the window opening.

Yes you can use this reinforcement system on any wall. You need to assess the load and refer to the BRE tables to ensure the brick beam will carry the weight being applied.

you still will have a cracked wall and a failing lintel so what's the point? The strength of the twisted rods is nothing compared to a lintel. When a lintel fails it is for many reasons. Design failure or corrosion and the product you sell does nothing for either.

If you build it right you dont need this. Cause your window frame does not need to suppert the wall that is above!

So the wondow came out then what? The lintel just gets a wee patch up? Stick a wee bit of gyp rok filler in there?
