Wall Cladding Profiles
Specifying Euroclad cladding profiles has several advantages. The shadow effect of the wide crest and narrow trough typical of these profiles is more pleasing to the eye. The fixings are more readily hidden and the side lap detail is less intrusive. Thus enhancing the aesthetics of the elevation.
The profiles may be fixed, horizontally, vertically or even diagonally. Each method has its own particular problems and pitfalls. Some suggestions to assist the cladding contractor are listed in the section on ‘Manufacturer’s Recommendations’. Laying the cladding profile horizontally also allows the opportunity of including horizontally mitred corners or curved profile corners (smooth or crimped dependent upon choice and radius). Both of these features are covered in their relevant sections.
All profiles in this section may be curved. Often the feature of a hidden gutter contained above the eaves will allow a transfer from roof to cladding profile incorporating a curved eave. The wider crest of the cladding profile certainly enhances the curved eaves feature. In this, or in parapet wall situations the curved effect can be continued on the corners of the structure by the inclusion of curved mitred corners. These mitred corners may be manufactured at any angle to suit the structure.

Technical Note: Horizonal Wall Cladding
It is important to note that horizontally laid wall cladding sheets may twist as they follow the multiple tolerances of a building framework. This could result in surface distortion. If deformation occurs it will be far more visible in reflective coatings such as the metallic finishes available in Corus Colorcoat Prisma® and PVDF coated materials.
The application of horizontal cladding combining high gloss finishes with dark colours is not recommended by Euroclad. If this type of application is employed great care needs to be taken during installation to achieve an acceptable result. Any inconsistency in the external face of the sheet would be purely cosmetic and would not affect published performance figures.
