A practical photographic and technical breakdown of the 6 core stages of on-site light gauge steel erection: ground track alignment, wall panelization, floor joists, roof truss installation, sheathing, and weatherproofing.
Detailed breakdowns, physical data, regulatory standards, and practical jobsite execution recommendations.
The concrete foundation slab is marked according to the 3D drawing grid. A high-density EPDM/bitumen damp-proof course (DPC) is laid under perimeter tracks, and base profiles are anchored with chemical M16 resin bolts.
Pre-assembled wall panels are lifted into place, leveled with lasers, and interconnected using self-drilling structural screws. For two-storey villas, engineered C-joist floor cassettes are mounted directly onto load-bearing studs.
Triangulated roof trusses are hoisted and locked with hurricane ties. Exterior BoardeX/OSB sheathing boards are screwed off every 150mm, followed by breathable vapor-permeable membranes, achieving full weather-tight lockup.

Both options are available. Over 80% of our clients build using their local carpenter or builder following our comprehensive 3D manuals. Alternatively, you can book a SerVilla factory master engineer to supervise your site crew during the 4–6 day erection.
A standard 4-person assembly crew equipped with cordless screw guns can erect the entire ground tracks, wall panels, intermediate floor joists, and roof trusses in just 4 to 6 working days.
Yes. Under our Supply + Supervision option, a certified bilingual SerVilla structural engineer is deployed to your jobsite to oversee foundation anchor setting, panel squaring, screw torque calibration, and roof erection.
