Yes, I see it.
I will refrain from posting using my tablet.
Now enough with the names and learn to practice patience.
Yeah, we all know how you get when you eat too many beans! :roll:
Jonas, 4 years and I have had enough of your stalking and stupidity.
You should have been given the boot from InterNACHI FULL TIME.
Now I will do my best to ensure the next one sticks!
Just try me.
you will be surprised by the result.
You fail to see you own shortcomings even after getting ejected from the MB and as a member in good standing by Nick Gromicko.
I can plainly see mine and do apologize to all on this thread.

A CMU lintel is what.
Educate us, please?
Y-a-w-n!!!
Seriously, what is wrong with you?
Stalking on the internet is a criminal offence.
I will be sending all posts to Minnesota & Northern Iowa BBB.
I will explain the stalking I have endured for almost 5 years.
Then to Bullying and Cyberbullying
InterNACHI can explain what an exemplary member you are then explain why you were dismissed as a member in good standing.
I will send them the reams of posts you place for all members to see on the MB about how you degrade this association that tolerates you.
Good luck after that.
Z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z-z…
Marcel, to answer your question, I was concerned it was a block bond beam that had been modified. I could not see that it was a concrete lintel.
Sorry for any confusion.
As for the CMU block wall in image 20151102_091142.
They are cobbled over lower CMU units.
The cobble space rule would apply or am I mistaken.
Thanks.
Jonas, why do you think you can use such demeaning tactics such as stalking a member on the message board?
Why do you think you can use medicine as a smear against anyone.
You are a very small man sir.
I am tired of being stalked and demeaned by you.
Enough…see my response and take it outside. http://www.nachi.org/forum/f72/reported-post-ryoung7-106229/

Thanks for the link Marcel!
Best regards,

good link thank you
Our precast lintels down here are u-shaped and filled with one #5, which is then poured with grout at the same time the bond beam is poured.
I don’t see how this passes inspection without an engineer being involved. If this were a buyer’s inspection, I would have written:
“Non-prescriptive foundation elements observed in the crawlspace, including the use of a precast lintel for wall support and soil restraint. Soil and back fill displacement observed. Recommend that the seller produce the approved construction permit and certificate of occupancy for the home, and sealed supporting documentation from the engineer of record.”
I wouldn’t go on record saying this is ok, even if your gut tells you so. It’s an obvious non-prescriptive method. If you bless it, and something happens, you’ll likely find your name added to the list of defendants. Why take the risk?
Randy,
Without seeing the house you are dead right. The crawl space did adjoin the basement. Now it makes sense. Thanks and I will relay that to the buyer.
Jim
Drawings? Permit? Also…appears to be a lintel not a bond beam.
