Hi,

 

You cannot curve cladding sheets across their width.

 

If you want the curve along hte length of the cladding sheets then:- Draw your curve, use Beam from Line on the curve and select the cladding profile you require as the section type. Cladding or anything else is just a curved beam like any other.
