1. Longspan Lintels supply Kwiklin beams in matched pairs in standard lengths of 5400m, 6450mm,

7500mm or 8550mm cut to length as required.2. The supporting columns must be constructed (use minimum quality 7 Mpa bricks and blocks) as

directed by the engineer. Structure must b e well cured, sound and level before placing beams.(Non shrink grout can be used to level up and bond top brickwork if necessary).

3. Set up secure scaffold and heavy duty boards to accommodate required lifting crew for placingmanually. Longer beams may require a crane or lifting tackle which can be provided.

4. Beams must be lifted with two slings on a spreader bar when using a crane or tackle.

5. Set up and l ine up the two Kwikl in beams.Tap in required number of laminating galvanised steel bushes.Using locating saddles clipped onto the bushes, set reinforc ing in place as required

by engineer.Caulk th e gap between the beams or t ie up a shut ter board when creating a wider beam(260/280mm wall applications.)Set-up singl e prop in c entre of beam assembly.Cast 40 MPA concr ete into beam (16 litres requir ed per running meter)

6. Steel imbedded in supporting column brickwork should be secured through the joint in theKwiklins and tied in by the concrete infill in the bearer beam to create a connected structure.

7. Where practical, it is advisable to place the first course of brickwork immediately above theKwiklin assembly as a header course.

8. Subsequent course to be laid with galvanised brickforce in the mortar joints.

9. Alternatively, the strength of the beam can be further increased by integrating reinforcing upthrough the upper brickwork constructed as a cavity wall so as to admit further reinforcedconcrete infill between the leaves.

10. Hoop iron can also be wrapped around reinforcing bar and passed up through the brickwork tosecure the roof rafters, before casting concrete beam infill.

Laminated Bearer Beam Engineering Data

NOTES:1) The tables satisfy SABS 0100 - latest revision

2) Calculations for table prepared by Mr. Colin Dunn Endecon Pe Trust (reg. No. 730442)

3) Kwiklins can be further reinforced by integrating reinforcing to the upper brickwork constructedso as to admit concrete infill between leaves.

4) Kwiklins spanning 6m clear with concrete infill and steel reinforcing, will carry 10 courses ofbrickwork without sagging. It is advisable to fit a temporary prop under the centre of theKwiklin assembly during construction when time does not permit for infill concrete orbrickwork to set.

5) Kwiklins must be applied under supervision and specification of aprofessional engineer.

Reinforced brickwork built up above, will enhance the shear capacity when hardened
