As long as it is not arched, and there is brick above it, you need a lentil.
It's not a question of opening size but a question of loading over the opening. No load, no lintel. If a 12 inch opening is capped with a 16" block, the block is the lintel. If an opening is between wall studs there is little need for anything that would be called a lintel. Anouther name for a lintel is a header. There is usually some kind of header over an opening. A lintel's size and integrity is determined by the load it will support.
Yes, a lentil, or lintel, is typically required when installing a new window in a concrete block wall. It provides structural support to the weight of the wall above the window opening, preventing potential collapse or damage. The lintel helps distribute the load evenly across the wall, ensuring the stability and integrity of the structure. Proper installation of the lintel is crucial for the safety and durability of the window installation.
The number of breeze blocks per square meter will depend on the size of the breeze block. Typically, a standard breeze block measures 440mm x 215mm, so to cover 1 square meter with these blocks, you would need approximately 20 blocks. However, for accurate calculations, it's best to refer to the specific dimensions of the breeze block you will be using.
Probably not. You MAY be describing a lintel (beam that spans the opening). You really need this inspected by a chimney specialist that knows fireplaces.
This would not be a good project for the average homeowner. That lintel is supporting the weight of the chimney above it. To remove and install a new lintel will require temprary support of the chimney on that side. Failing to do that can result in cracks, or even collapse of the chimney.
Stone, metal or wood depending on need. A lintel is the part, not what it is made of.

The amount of steel required for a lintel typically depends on its design, load-bearing requirements, and local building codes. Generally, for a standard lintel, you might use around 0.1 to 0.15 kg of steel per square foot. Therefore, for a 100 square foot lintel, you would need approximately 10 to 15 kg of steel. It's important to consult with a structural engineer for precise calculations based on specific conditions.

it might just need to be reset Ihave the same problem with my breeze
The water pump on a 1999 Plymouth Breeze is located on the front of the engine, typically on the passenger side. It is driven by the serpentine belt and is usually mounted to the engine block. To access it, you may need to remove the serpentine belt and any related components, such as the radiator or hoses, depending on the specific repair being performed.
