It depends on span requirements and whether you need to maintain a cavity. T-Bars are commonly used for larger spans and are designed to support both internal and external brick skins simultaneously (such as 230mm solid brick walls). However, when the opening is on the exterior of the building’s footprint, and there is a habitable area internally, maintaining a cavity is critical to prevent water ingress. In these situations, separate Angle Bars are preferred, as each skin is supported independently and a drainage cavity is maintained between them. T-Bars do not provide a cavity separation, as the section connects both skins structurally.
