Frequently Asked Questions

No. This calculator provides indicative guidance based on general industry practices. Final reinforcement design and compliance must be verified by a qualified structural engineer, especially for high-rise or high-wind applications.

Reinforcement thickness depends on window/door dimensions (larger spans need thicker steel), application type (doors require more support than fixed windows), floor level (higher floors face greater wind loads), and exposure conditions (coastal areas need enhanced corrosion protection).

Yes, fabricators can use this tool to get initial reinforcement specifications for quoting and production planning. However, always verify specifications with your profile supplier's technical documentation and local building codes before final production.
