Curtain Wall Profiles
Define mullion and transom profiles directly — quantities are per structural bay
Transom cut = M/W − FW · Pressure plate = same
Glass W = M/W − GD · Glass H = M/H − GD
ⓘ Standard Formula Reference (enter FW & GD above to see live values)

Sliding sash rule: Maximum Width and Maximum Height cannot be used together at full size. At least one side must be reduced by 20%.
Example: if Max W=2500 and Max H=3800, then 2500×3800 is not allowed.

INTERLOCK SYSTEM SELECTOR
Structural Auto-Selection · Sliding Sash
How it works: Enter opening dimensions and wind load. The system calculates sash size from formulas,
runs structural deflection auto-selection for the active system bucket, and picks the first profile with sufficient inertia Ix.
Calculates Ireqd and auto-selects a profile by Ix within the active system bucket.

No interlock applied yet — use the Calculator tab to auto-select.
How it works: Map each Standard interlock code to its Reverse counterpart. When the Calculator picks a Standard interlock and a sash group is set to Reverse mode, the matching Reverse interlock is automatically added to the assembly list (and its weight to the stock list). Profile weight is read from the Profile Data catalog using the Reverse code.

Standard Code(s): One or more codes separated by

4327 / 4326 → 4377, 4328 → NL-4378R, 773659 → 89090.
How it works: Map each Interlock code + Sash Type combination to its Top & Bottom End-Cap part numbers. When an interlock is auto-selected, every matching mapping row is added to the assembly list (one Top + one Bottom end cap per row), with quantity equal to that interlock's quantity.
