gdesignbuild Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I am just working on a masonry garage design, and have been held up trying to figure out some details. One is for steel lintels that I am putting over the openings. The closest thing that you can use as a header type is a steel-box but I will be using steel angle. The header column shows the dimensions including the length of your lintel but only gives 1.5" on each side of the opening. Is anyone familiar with a way that I can change this to more? Otherwise, I will just remove that column and leave a note in the comments. Second issue: When you pull your cross sections from a CMU building, it shows your trusses sitting right on the block. For now I have manually drawn my plate in with an anchor but I was curious if there is a way to do this as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaneK Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 All will require a work around. Double angle iron with notch in block for lintel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
