Prefabricated Steel Buildings & Mining Camps for Africa | SerBuild

Q: Are structural calculations fully compliant with building regulations in North & Sub-Saharan Africa?

Yes. Every building is calculated strictly in accordance with Eurocode 3 and the National Annex for North & Sub-Saharan Africa (Eurocode 3 (EN 1993)). We provide complete calculation dossiers with connection verifications and foundation reaction tables ready for local building authority or control bureau sign-off.

Q: What customs duties and import documentation apply to North & Sub-Saharan Africa?

Thanks to the A.TR movement certificate (EU-Turkey Customs Union) or bilateral trade agreements, structural steel exports to North & Sub-Saharan Africa enter with 0% customs duty. Import VAT is handled via standard reverse-charge or national customs mechanisms.

Q: Can we assemble the building with our own local construction crew?

Yes. All structural components are 100% factory pre-drilled, individually tagged, and accompanied by detailed 3D step-by-step assembly drawings. No site cutting or welding is needed. We can also provide a dedicated on-site installation supervisor upon request.

Q: How are the concrete foundations designed for our site in North & Sub-Saharan Africa?

We provide complete foundation load tables (axial compression, uplift, shear forces, and overturning moments) along with anchor bolt positioning templates to your local foundation engineer prior to delivery.
