In short: Solmast supplies ground-mount PV mounting structures for the Philippines from Kunming, China. Structures are designed for typhoon wind speeds and seismic loads under the National Structural Code of the Philippines, protected for coastal corrosion, and delivered with layout drawings, structural calculations, a bill of materials and steel and galvanizing records.
Why EPCs in the Philippines work with us
| What matters | What we do |
|---|
| Typhoon wind design | Calculations for the site’s basic wind speed under NSCP 2015, with wind usually governing the frame and the uplift on piles. |
| Seismic checks | Seismic combinations checked for foundations, slopes and heavy equipment, as in our earthquake-zone guide. |
| Coastal corrosion | Hot-dip galvanized to ISO 1461 with coating set for coastal corrosivity, or ZAM-coated profiles. |
| Foundations | Driven piles, screw piles, PHC piles, bored piles or pads, chosen from the geotechnical report. |
| Comparable quotations | Weight per table, steel grade, section sizes and coating stated line by line. |
| Project documents | Layout drawings, structural calculation report, bill of materials, steel mill certificates and galvanizing records. |
How a project runs
| Step | What happens |
|---|
| 1. Send the project data | Capacity, layout or site boundary, module data, wind speed, seismic zone and soil report. |
| 2. Design and quotation | Structure design, foundation proposal, weight per table, steel grade and coating, stated line by line. |
| 3. Calculation and drawings | Structural calculation report and layout drawings for approval. |
| 4. Production and inspection | Profiles, galvanizing records and third-party inspection before shipment. |
| 5. Delivery | FOB, CIF or DAP, packed by table and row for site sorting. |
Our commitments
| Commitment | Detail |
|---|
| Reply and quotation | We reply within one working day and normally quote within two working days once we have the project data. |
| Engineering with the offer | A lighting calculation with the IES file and an energy balance for your site, so evaluators can check the design. |
| Samples | Samples or prototypes for approval before production, with photos and video. |
| Factory visit or video audit | Visit our partner production bases near Kunming, or ask for a live video tour of the workshops and your order. |
| Third-party inspection | SGS, Bureau Veritas, Intertek or your own inspector before shipment. |
| Terms | FOB, CIF or DAP quotations; OEM marking under your own brand on request. |
| First order from your market | Sample terms for a first order from a new market can be discussed, case by case. Ask us when you send the project. |
