Lintel over garage entrance

[mrodney (Michael Rodney)]

Noticed this lintel over garage entrance appeared to be joined…like it was not long enough originally. Look at the 14" mark. Is this OK?

Michael, most likely a steel plate welded to the bottom side of a beam to support the masonry wythes of the wall.
