Treco Steel's Lintels Comply with the Standards

Treco Steel's range of ABC Pro-Series hot-dip galvanized steel lintels comply with all relevant Australian Standards for components that are built into masonry structures. Such components must comply with Australian Standards specifically in the areas of structural adequacy, corrosion resistance and durability.

Structurally, ABC Pro-Series Lintels have been subjected to engineering assessments and tests in accordance with Australian Standards for load-bearing capacity. The structural integrity of the products has been determined by the appropriate Australian Standards and is backed by selection guides, and comprehensive load tables.

The corrosion resistance and durability of ABC Pro-Series lintels also complies with the appropriate Australian Standards. The hot-dip galvanized coating has been applied in Australia in accordance with the Australian Standard for hot-dip galvanized coatings. This galvanized coating provides both the corrosion resistance and the durability demanded by the Australian Standard for 'Built-in components for masonry construction'. Each Pro-Series Lintel is identified by a metal stamping or a marking in compliance with (and referencing) that Australian Standard.

Beware of non-compliant imported products that are not metal stamped or marked in compliance with (and referencing) Australian Standards. Also beware of products that are not supported by appropriate engineering assessments and load tables based on Australian Standards. Remediation costs involving the destruction and replacement of masonry over non-compliant or faulty lintels will be substantial and reputations will be damaged.
