    Here, bracket is also known as one of an architectural element. It can also be made of wood, stone, plaster, metal and other media. It projects from a wall, usually to carry weight and sometimes to strengthen an angle. The type of bracket is console or corbel.

    Brackets are used to support many architectural items, including a wall, balcony, parapets, eaves, the spring of an arch, beam, pergola roof, window box, or a shelf.

    Brackets are also an element in the systems used to mount modern facade cladding systems onto the outside of the contemporary buildings as well as interior panels.
