Cladding Systems

Cladding systems are essential for providing weather protection for the roof and walls of steel structures, which can be covered fully or partially depending on functional requirements. The technical specifications for roof and wall cladding include long-span ribbed panels with coverage widths of 1200mm or 1000mm and core thicknesses ranging from 0.50mm to 0.8mm. These panels are constructed from high tensile strength steel (S550) and are secured to the structure using self-drilling stainless steel screws.

The base materials used for cladding consist of Bare Galvalume, as per IS 513, with a thickness of 0.4mm to 0.8mm; Color Coated Galvalume, as per IS 513 (AZ 150), with a thickness of 0.4mm to 0.8mm; and Color Coated Galvanized, as per IS 277 (120 GSM), with a thickness of 0.5mm to 0.8mm. The advantages of these cladding systems are their economical and practical nature, enhanced safety and watertightness due to the strength of their fixation, attractive appearance, ease of installation, cost-effective energy efficiency, and long-term performance.
