Yes, façades can serve structural roles when engineered appropriately. Modern aluminum composite panels (ACPs), for instance, combine lightweight properties with high tensile strength, enabling them to contribute to wind load resistance, self-supporting cladding systems, or even hybrid structural frameworks. Critical factors include material selection (Por exemplo, alloy grades, core composition), connection design, and integration with the building’s primary structure.
At Xtra Metal Group, we specialize in custom-engineered solutions where façades seamlessly merge aesthetics with structural performance, adhering to international codes like ASTM and EN. Our 30+ years of global project experience ensures that cladding systems not only enhance visual appeal but also meet rigorous safety and durability demands.
