How do I reinforce the U-blocks in the U-beam above the opening?
My bricklayer has ceased to exist so I can't ask him and I've hired another experienced old bricklayer who doesn't know how it's been calculated.
The U-blocks are 350x190x300. Should I throw in the largest possible I-beam or 4 thick reinforcement bars?
Should I try to fill half with insulation (styrofoam) to break the thermal bridge?
