Build Better.sM <br /> How to Use the Lintel Reinforcement Tables <br /> Step 1 -Review the design criteria used to establish the lintel reinforcement tables to determine <br /> if they are applicable. In particular,verify that there are no concentrated loads applied to the <br /> lintel. <br /> Step 2 -Determine the lintel height above the opening. Tables are provided for lintel <br /> heights of 8", 12", 16", 24",and 32". Intermediate lintel heights may be reinforced according to <br /> the table for the next smaller lintel height. <br /> Step 3 -Determine the lintel span that is the width of the clear opening under the lintel, <br /> For spans that are intermediate to the spans shown in the lintel tables,use the next largest lintel <br /> span. <br /> Step 4-Determine the factored load per foot of lintel. Use the expected dead and live <br /> applied loads or the code required minimum loads multiplied by the appropriate load factors. The <br /> factored loads given may be used for conditions that do not exceed those shown above for typical <br /> residential construction. <br /> Step 5—Find the appropriate table for the selected lintel height and the Reward iForm <br /> being used(9", 11"or 13"). Find a load in the table equal to or greater than the applied factared <br /> � load determined above. Read from the table the required bending(top&bottom)reinforcement <br /> (1-#S, 1-#6,2-#5}-and the required shear reinforcement(#3 stirrups or welded wire <br /> reinforcement). <br /> Issued on: 4/1/2003 6-29 <br /> Release; E <br />
