So just to confirm you are saying this is going to be load bearing. Given there is a window I would suspect it is. Also the way you have drawn the studs up against the window is not correct. I think you will need a double stud. Re: Help with timber framing lintel 4Sep 01, 2014 8:48 pm B STAR To work out the measurements people will need to know what the roof material is going to be.

If so you'll need a 275 x 75mm or a 300 x 50 F7 lintel for a roof span of 5100mm or less. A bigger span and you'll need a 300 x 75.
