Les informations clés pour obtenir un devis quantitatif précis et conforme sous 24 à 48 heures.
To generate a precise, cost-optimized structural steel building proposal without inflated contingency buffers, structural engineers require five foundational data sets: 1) Geometrical Footprint (clear span width, total length, clear eave height, and roof pitch), 2) Site Location & Climatic Codes (postal code for Eurocode 1 snow, wind, and seismic values), 3) Functional Equipment (overhead crane tonnage, mezzanine load ratings, solar PV roof allowances), 4) Envelope Insulation Requirements (PIR panel thickness or uninsulated), and 5) Commercial Scope & Incoterm (FOB port, DAP jobsite, or with on-site supervision). Providing complete data allows SerBuild to run 3D Tekla FEA models and deliver an itemized static calculation and price quote within 24 to 48 hours.
Structural steel framing is custom-engineered to match the precise environmental loads and functional demands of your site. Providing the following information ensures an immediate, highly competitive proposal:
The table below shows how the completeness of your project information directly impacts proposal turnaround speed and pricing precision:
| Information Level Provided | Typical Data Received | Budget Accuracy | Turnaround Time | Next Steps Required |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Level 1: Basic Dimensions Only | Width x Length x Height (e.g. 20x50x6m) | ± 15% (Provisional Range) | 4 – 12 Hours | Site climate loads & cladding selection |
| Level 2: Dimensions + Site Location + Use | Dimensions, postal code, warehouse use, cladding choice | ± 5% (Firm Preliminary) | 24 Hours | Confirmation of door openings & crane needs |
| Level 3: Full Architectural CAD / PDF Plans | DWG layout, elevations, sections, door schedules, crane specs | 100% Fixed Guaranteed Price | 24 – 48 Hours | Contract drafting & Tekla 3D static report |
| Level 4: Complete Engineering / IFC Tender | Structural drawings, foundation specs, Tekla model, BOQ | 100% Itemized Tender Bid | 48 Hours | Immediate manufacturing scheduling |
| Parameter | Minimum Requirement | Recommended Detail | Impact if Omitted |
|---|---|---|---|
| Building Span & Length | Gross m² (e.g. 1,000 m²) | Clear span width (e.g. 24m) x Length (50m) | Requires assumed geometry; can alter steel weight by 20% |
| Eave Height | Estimated height (e.g. 6m) | Clear hook/racking height (e.g. 7.5m eave) | May fail vertical clearance checks during rack install |
| Site Postal Code / City | Country name (e.g. Germany) | Exact postal code (e.g. 80331 Munich) | Engineers must assume worst-case snow zone (+15% cost) |
| Cladding Specification | Insulated or Not | 80mm PIR / 100mm Rockwool / Single-skin | Envelope budget variance of €25 to €60 per m² |
| Overhead Cranes | Crane yes/no | Crane tonnage (10t), span, and hook travel | Columns cannot be sized for dynamic fatigue moments |

Yes. A simple hand-drawn sketch showing width, length, eave height, door locations, and site city is completely sufficient for SerBuild engineers to model the building and provide a firm, itemized proposal within 24 hours.
You do not need to research meteorological loads. Simply provide the site postal code or town name, and our engineering software will automatically extract the exact characteristic snow load (Sk) and wind velocity (Vb,0) from the national annex.
Due to global steel raw material index dynamics, our fixed-price quotations are typically guaranteed for 30 days. We offer price-lock guarantees once the advance engineering milestone is activated.
Yes. Once the proposal is accepted, our structural team provides full column foundation reaction tables (axial loads, shear forces, and overturning moments in kN and kNm) so your local civil engineer can size concrete footings.
Yes. SerBuild models all buildings in Tekla Structures and exports standard IFC and 3D DWG models for seamless integration into your architect’s BIM coordination workflow.
