No not really as iam having facing brickwork detail above the opening for when I render it. You had 2 concrete lintels over the door which was 2 garage doors wide? , I take it you had no block work on top of it?.
I had no calcs building inspector had a look at the 6 m ones for the roof and said they are fine , the one above the door fuck me if that ain't big enough I don't know what is.
The only thing I know is it has to be built to regs to get it signed off so whatever needs doing will get done.
