Structural Engineering — Facade & Cladding Design

This calculator performs preliminary IS:8147 checks for aluminium SHS back-frame members used in facade cladding systems.
Applicable for ACP, stone / porcelain tiles, zinc sheet, perforated screen & similar lightweight facades.

Calculations based on IS:8147 (Aluminium Alloy Structures) · STAAD-calibrated deflection model · Alloy 6063-T6 / 6061-T6 · For final use, verify with a licensed structural engineer.
