Yeah, I should correct my drawing. 150 is the nominal size, including a mortar course, so the actual lintel is 140 x 100. That's fine. The reason for using straps is so as not to pierce the DPC. Buy a cheap roll of the universal galvanised MS strapping, and cut off the lengths you need. Screw and plug into the inside face of the lintels.
I have enough tools, and so do you.

when I built my shed I wrapped the bottom edge of the bearer with 3" wide dampcourse plastic so that the wood didnt touch the concrete with the only fixings being at the ends on top

There's an in depth thread here documenting a workshop build using this technique. Well worth a read for anyone considering building a workshop this way.

Mike,
I'd be interested in your opinion of the work being done by Ali Dymock on youtube and his website, trying to clarify details for people while he does his own "garden room".
His videos are quite informative for those of us not au fait with all of the details.
I'd especially like your opinion on how he's raised his floor up on block piers.
