It needs to be in place prior to propping. If the beam is heavy, you will need to use genie lifts (both ends), then you will need sufficient gaps in the propping (900mm). Strongboys may not ne man enough, i.e. needling may be required. Plus, the Genies will need running boards, so that they have an uninterrupted travel along the ground and the beam will need to be elevated on blocks etc....
Not too bad that, no upstairs, no roof load. Are you planning to fit from inside to preserve the external brickwork? I think I would. You can get a longer strongboy thing now which would give space to hoik It up and in.

You see I have tho different heights outside and inside because of the bottom plate so my only option to put steel in between before I start to insert strongboys and acrows
