Method of manufacturing structual member
The method comprises providing a first load-bearing element 30 in a first orientation, providing an insulating core 40, applying an adhesive to the first load-bearing element or insulating core and bringing them into contact, providing a second load-bearing element 44, applying an adhesive to the second load-bearing element or insulating core and bringing them into contact, changing the orientation of the lintel, and applying heat and pressure to at least one of the load-bearing elements to cure the adhesive. The load-bearing elements may be metal, and there may be no direct contact between them. The load-bearing elements and insulating core may be moved into contact vertically downwards. The insulating core and second load-bearing element may have corresponding angled surfaces, and a heat press applied to the angled surface of the second load-bearing element to apply the heat and pressure. The heat press may comprise rollers. Also claimed is a thermally broken lintel manufactured according to the method.
