The Project Challenge

High seismic risk area (Zone II), strong Aegean summer winds, and architectural demand for 12-meter panoramic glass sliding walls overlooking the sea.

The SerBuild Engineering Solution

Hybrid structural skeleton: hot-rolled steel frame provided expansive glass openings while lightweight LGS wall panels provided high thermal and acoustic performance.

Delivered Technical Scope

  • ELOT EN 1998 seismic engineering report approved by Greek planning bureau
  • Pre-engineered structural steel frame with precision bolted corner moments
  • Pre-punched LGS infill panels with thermal break exterior insulation
  • Shipped via Ro-Ro sea container to Port of Heraklion

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.
