About this detail

A painted steel lintel supports the exterior face brick and rests above a hollow metal frame filled with grout, spaced with shims as required. A copper-fabric flashing sits on the steel lintel with weepholes spaced at twenty-four inches on center below the brick course. The exterior backup wall consists of 1 1/2-inch rigid insulation board, 1/2-inch plywood sheathing, a vapor barrier, and steel studs with R-20 fiberglass batt insulation. The interior finish is 5/8-inch gypsum board with a corner bead, finished with a casing bead and sealant at the frame interface.
