prefabricated recreational complexes

Yes. We design and manufacture both custom and modular steel buildings shipped worldwide. Some modular buildings an even be manufactured in advanced in order to shorten the construction cycle for some international clients. These buildings usually consist of the certain modules combined together (see photos below) The erection process goes through pretty fast and can be carried out even by simple people.

The custom buildings are made on order taking into consideration the individual parameters of the building (dimensions, type of structure, type of cladding systems, color schemes and ext.)

We do not doubt the quality of products and the work experience of the main players in the market of prefabricated buildings in Russia and abroad, but we draw attention to the fact that many of them adhere to the traditional business model of customer service, which is based on filling out the technical specs and calculating the building by company employees in office offline, receiving results and then sending the commercial proposal to the client by e-mail.

A distinctive feature of the PK Vesta plant is the unique on-line WebSteel system, which allows the client to design and instantly calculate the costs of a pre-fabricated building in real time via the Internet (snow, wind and seismic loads are digitized in Eurasia, the Middle East and Africa) The system is active 24 hours and 7 days a week. The client himself designs the building on-line, and our company makes it to order on the basis of the new philosophy of “Smart Techno Design» (free online design in the zone of technological restrictions of production) and a new approach to the production of «Smart Continuous Production» (a set of methods for manufacturing individual steel buildings with emphasis on quality, speed, automation and staff motivation) WebSteel is not a complex calculator or a large form for filling out the parameters of a technical building, but a  powerful online platform created on the basis of algorithms, structural mechanics and research work.

In such buildings, we pay special attention to modern building technology - cold-formed galvanized profiles (LSGF), which allows for some parameters of the building to reduce the metal consumption of the structure to about 30%, and therefore the final cost of the steel building.

These buildings are lightweight, have excellent anti-corrosion properties (they effectively resist a highly ammonia aggressive environment in the agricultural and storage industry), ease of installation and reduced transportation and foundation costs. Such buildings are widely used for car dealerships, shops, offices, warehouses, hangars, garages, production shops, agricultural farms, etc.

Below is the main chronology of the assembly of the building based on cold-formed galvanized profiles (car dealership Peugeot, Tula, Russia), designed in the WebSteel online system.

Yes. These sections are indeed included into the building kit. Usually a foreign client receives thee drawings and attach them to the local General Project to be confirmed by the local government authorities. 

Yes. We provide erection services in the regions of Euroasia, the Middle East and Africa through a network of local certified erection teams. This approach minimizes the overall construction budget. The preliminary costs of civil work, erection and delivery are calculated in the WebSteel online system (based on the common soils)

Recommendations of PK VESTA:

In order to reduce costs, customers from remote regions are advised to use the services of third-party installation organizations. For customers who are interested in turnkey commissioning services, it is possible to conclude a single agreement with the regional representative of PK Vesta. You can also conclude separate contracts for the design, manufacture and installation, but this option will cost more.

A building kit with the 100% bolted-together design is delivered to the construction site. Assembly drawings and all layouts are attached (translated into the required language beforehand) Vertical columns with bases are mounted first, then trusses with a secondary framing. Next wall and roof sandwich panels are mounted. And all trimming elements are sewn up with the further installation of gates, doors and windows.

The cost of the foundation largely depends on the type of soil, for the determination of which engineering and geological surveys are required. Based on the results of the geo study, the type of foundation and the depth of its foundation are selected. Then the exact cost of foundation work (the amount of concrete, materials and working time) is determined.

WebSteel online system calculates the cost of the foundation of a pre-fabricated building for conventional (most common) soils. However, in most cases, the calculation is quite accurate. At the negotiation stage, it can be used to draw up a preliminary construction budget.

After the conclusion of the transaction, the client receives the terms for the design and manufacture of a complete building (foundation plan) At the initial stage of design, the client receives a grid of columns, and at the stage of shipment of products from the territory of the plant - installation diagrams. The grid of columns helps the client to prepare the foundation in advance, in parallel with the manufacture of a set of pre-fabricated buildings in our production.

Below are the basic steps for installing the rigid framing building on the basis of a welded beam starting from the preparation of the foundation to the commissioning of the facility (Coca-Cola warehouse in Ryazan, Russia)

Due to the individual approach to international clients, the terms of design and manufacturing can vary significantly depending on the building structure, order volume, the availability of certain accessories in the form of internal columns, windows, doors, sky lights, crane beams, etc. In the WebSteel online system, the client will be able to easily calculate the certain design and production times for all buildings depending on the construction site in Eurasia, the Middle East or Africa. To do this, you need to spend not more than 10 minutes to enter the parameters of the building into the system.

Key dates

1. Designing sections of the project (frame, facades and foundation): approximately 2-3 weeks. The period depends on the level of customization of the pre-fabricated building

2. Manufacture: from 1 to 3 weeks for turnkey buildings with an area from ​​300 to 1000 m2. On average, it takes one week, largely depending on the size of the building and the structures used

3. Shipping: from 1 to 10 business days, an average of 4 business days.

4. Delivery: 2 to 3 business days (Eurasia). For export transactions (the Middle East and Africa), delivery may take up to 3-4 weeks.

5. Erection: 3 to 8 weeks. Typically, for buildings with an area of ​​500-600 m2, 2 weeks are required for the erection of light metal structures, 2-3 weeks for the installation of building envelopes with all additional materials (gates, doors, additional and decorative elements, etc.).

6. The commissioning of the object takes about 1 month (for buildings less than 1,000 m2) and depends on the level of the building (heating, electricity, lighting, etc.)

Important! Timing largely depends on the number of assembly teams, the number of people in the team, the level of qualifications, experience of installers and the availability of equipment. At your request, it is possible to reduce the duration of the entire process by 1.5-2 times.

Important! All terms are automatically calculated in the WebSteel online system, taking into account the load of the design office and production. The client can easily get this information in a commercial offer. Dates are fixed only upon payment at the stage of the transaction. Priority in terms is given to those customers who made the payment.

The exact cost of 1 m2 of a prefabricated building can only be determined for typical modular buildings, as these are buildings with standard dimensions and finished projects. And then they are usually calculated with the most common loads (snow, wind and seismic) and are not always suitable for an individual request.

Since the WebSteel system allows you to calculate a custom building online according to certain parameters, the cost of 1 sq.m. for buildings can vary greatly. Minor changes in such parameters as the length, width, height of the building, its type of structure, number of floors, the presence of a crane beam, construction geography, types of enclosing structures, etc. may cause significant changes in the value of the building. In order not to mislead the client, we do not even give an approximate cost of 1 m2 at the negotiation stage, since the real price can differ significantly from the approximate one.

PK VESTA recommends that you spend no more than 10 minutes designing and instantly calculating your pre-fabricated building in WebSteel. If the project is complex and goes beyond the existing parameters, you need to create an individual quote, which is sent for calculation to the design office. You can find out the cost of the building roughly after 1 week. If there are tight deadlines, try to select or change the parameters for your building in the WebSteel system to get the instant online value for a building kit.

In any case, in the Websteel system, the client will receive the whole set of online documents for concluding a transaction (Commercial offer, Terms of Reference, free sketches and Contract). Usually the price proposal provides a detailed calculation by cost of each product category (steel framing, cladding systems, additional elements, erection, foundation and civil works, delivery, etc.)

For northern countries, we usually use a columnar or pile foundation taking into account snow, wind and seismic loads. The freezing point of soils can reach 1.5-2 meters. A lightweight metal frame based on anchor bolts is mounted on top. A foundation beam with a socle is poured along the perimeter from above, if necessary (to protect the lower part of the building during the off-season)

When exporting to southern countries (the Middle East, Africa), reinforced concrete slabs are often poured (with the thickness of 100 to 300 mm usually). The frame is attached to the slab based on chemical anchor bolts.

PK VESTA factory preliminarily issues the client a technical task for the foundation, which indicates the location of the base of the columns, the loads on the foundation, the center distance, the pitch of the frames, the dimensions of the base of the columns, the diameter of the holes for anchors, etc. Based on this document, the client is advised to order the project on the foundation at their place.

PK VESTA offers individual prefabricated steel buildings to international customers based on the unique WebSteel online system, which allows you to design and calculate the instant value of a custom building in real time via the Internet. When creating a web system, special attention was paid to minimizing the metal consumption of the steel building, which is the main feature of this online service. Another important advantage is an integrated approach - design, manufacture and erection of buildings anywhere in the world. PK VESTA provides a complete 100% factory turnkey building kit!

The technology of steel frame construction has long gained great popularity throughout the world, especially in Europe and North America. Lightweight metal structures are considered safe. Erection of these buildings is carried out within a few weeks due to the ease of construction, the absence of a massive capital foundation and the simple bolted-together connection of structural elements. The assembly of frames and girders at the construction site is carried out on bolted joints without the use of welding.

The steel frame is reliability, durability and fire resistance. It does not rot, does not sit down and does not dry out. The cost of insurance for this frame will be significantly lower than for wooden.

PK VESTA also pays special attention to buildings made out of LSGF, which can reach 30-36m in span and with an internal height of 8-10m. In general, this gives the client savings of up to 20-30% per frame compared to a classic ferrous metal frame (rigid framing made out of welded plates)

Yes. PK VESTA provides up to 12 months of basic warranty for wall and roof sandwich panels, prefabricated steel buildings, as well as for doors and gates. Under an extended warranty, the period can be increased up to 5 years, which largely depends on the operating conditions of the building in a particular environment and country.

PK VESTA guarantees the composition and quality of the supplied products in full accordance with the statement of work and the technical documentation that accompanies the supplied products. In the event that during the warranty period the product is found to be defective or not in accordance with the terms of the contract, we will eliminate the defects at our own expense.

The warranty period normally starts from the date of signing of the acceptance certificate of products on the territory of the manufacturer. The terms for eliminating defects are agreed upon depending on the complexity of their elimination. The warranty repair period should not exceed 30 working days. The warranty period is extended for a period corresponding to the downtime caused by defects and repairs.
