Best Way of attaching a Lean-to carport beam to red brick?

[RegRog83]

I am putting up a carport on the side of my house and am not sure what the most suitable and strongest anchoring bolts are for the 2"x6" C16 beam to red brick.

I've seen expansion bolts, resin anchors or thunder bolts.

Recommendations, brands etc. would be great, thanks!

Make sure the wall is strong enough to take the possible loading, have seen the Cantilever types get covered in snow and pull the wall down with the weight.

This is a similar thing to what I am going with, I have heard the horror stories with the Cantilever ones myself. Only thing I am a stuck with (so far lol) are what type of wall anchors to use.

Expansion bolts will be a reliable fix as long as you get the hole diameter right and don't overtorque them.
If you had solid bricks or concrete blocks resin anchors would be best but drilling accurately to depth in a cavity wall can be hit and miss and if the brick frogs or holes haven't been filled during building you'll use a lot of resin.
