Technical answers
What is STRUCTIVA and Where are Facilities Located?
STRUCTIVA is an international manufacturer and structural engineering corporation specializing in clear-span arch steel buildings, pre-engineered steel buildings (PEB), and heavy structural steel fabrication. Operating from its 25,000 MT/year integrated facilities in Adana, Türkiye (15 km from Mersin International Port), STRUCTIVA delivers certified bolted steel building kits to over 50 countries worldwide.
What Types of Steel Structures and Clear Spans Does STRUCTIVA Manufacture?
STRUCTIVA designs and fabricates Q-Series true arch hangars (9m–45m), S-Series straight-wall arch buildings (10m–30m), P-Series pitched roof structures (8m–24m), ISO container canopy roof trusses (6m–24m), and Heavy Industrial PEB portal frames (18m–60m+ clear span) with up to 50-ton overhead crane capacity.
How Does STRUCTIVA Manage International Shipping and On-Site Assembly?
STRUCTIVA conducts 3D static modeling and precision CNC roll-forming in Adana. Components are flat-packed into standard 40-foot High-Cube (40HC) ocean containers (~350–400 m² per container) for rapid, weld-free Grade 8.8 bolt-together assembly on-site anywhere in the world.
How Can an International Buyer Request a Quotation (RFQ)?
Buyers can submit project requirements (desired clear span, length, peak height, building purpose, and destination seaport) through STRUCTIVA's online 3D Configurator or technical RFQ form. Our structural engineering bureau prepares a static feasibility review, Bill of Materials (BOM), and commercial FOB/CIF quotation within 24 hours.
