a) The stability and strength of a frame may be enhanced by the infill wall, but for design purposes the frame is considered independently therefore settlement of the frame and differential thermal movement must be absorbed between the two elements. Possible constructional form of a lintel is shown in Fig. 1 below. What stresses is the reinforcing bar included supposed to withstand or resist?
