Project Technical Summary

Structural Technology Light Gauge Steel Framing (LGSF)
Steel Grade & Coating S350GD + Z275 Hot-Dip Galvanized High-Tensile Steel
Delivery Scope Supply + Supervision
Key Engineering Result Complete structural framing erected and sheathed in only 14 work days with zero dimensional deviations.

The Project Challenge

Severe coastal bora wind gusts (up to 180 km/h) and high seismic ground acceleration in the Adriatic coastal zone, combined with a tight 6-week dry framing deadline on a hillside plot.

The SerBuild Engineering Solution

Engineered a shear-wall strap-braced LGS framing system using 140mm exterior C-studs. All panels were flat-packed into two 40ft High Cube containers. A SerBuild senior site supervisor oversaw the local assembly crew.

Delivered Technical Scope

  • 3D BIM structural model and Eurocode 3 calculation dossier
  • Full CNC roll-formed LGS wall panels, floor joists, and roof trusses
  • All structural anchor bolts, self-drilling screws, and hold-down brackets
  • 10 days on-site engineering supervision and torque verification

Frequently Asked Questions

Detailed answers to technical, manufacturing, export, and on-site assembly questions.

SerBuild designs and manufactures light gauge steel (LGSF) and heavy structural steel buildings for residential developments, industrial warehouses, manufacturing factories, aircraft hangars, commercial offices, and agricultural halls.

Yes. All structural engineering is performed strictly according to Eurocodes (EN 1990, EN 1991, EN 1993, EN 1998) including project-specific National Annex parameters for local snow, wind, and seismic loads.

We offer five flexible delivery packages: Engineering Only, Supply Only (containerized flat-pack kit), Supply with On-Site Supervision, Complete Frame Installation, and Turnkey Project Delivery in eligible regions.

Components are precision roll-formed or cut, permanent piece-marked, and packed in dense weather-protected flat-pack bundles optimized for 40ft High Cube containers, accompanied by detailed 3D packing lists and assembly manuals.
