Rainscreen cladding design
Panel modules, joints, rails, brackets, fixings, cavities, membranes and barriers are coordinated with openings, corners, bases, parapets and adjacent systems.
Rainscreen, cladding and SFS coordination
The cladding works when every layer shares the same geometry.
ALM coordinates panel setting-out, support systems, cavities, performance layers, SFS and structure as one buildable envelope.

Where the interfaces are resolved
From outer finish to primary support.
Metal and profiled cladding
Sheet spans, support centres, restraint, laps, penetrations, flashings and weathering details are developed around the governing loads and manufacturer limits.
SFS and substrate interfaces
We coordinate fixing zones and tolerance with the recorded substrate position. Substrate replacement remains outside scope unless expressly appointed, while discrepancies are identified and routed to the responsible discipline.
Curtain wall and glazing interfaces
Where cladding meets curtain wall, windows or doors, we resolve movement, membranes, fire stopping, drainage, sealant geometry and installation sequence without blurring package responsibility.
What the appointment needs
Set the geometry once, then coordinate every supporting layer.
Current project basis
Cladding specification, elevations, setting-out, structural information, surveys, openings and system proposals.
Reviewable outputs
Cladding layouts, build-ups, details, schedules, bracket and fixing design, material review and issue information.
The right point to appoint
Tender design, specialist subcontract design, remediation, technical review or construction-stage recovery.
