Ceramic bricks are most frequently used for arranging the cladding layer of external layered masonry walls. The recent tendency has focused on a thinner cladding layer. Masonry lintels are used for making openings in the cladding layer. The article presents the results of experimental investigation in masonry lintels of 85 mm and 55 mm in width and 2 m long span. The experimentally established and calculated according to EC6 recommendations masonry lintels bearing load capacity has been compared.
