No sequential based yaku can combine with sankansu. This rules out pinfu, iipeikou, ittsu, and sanshoku doujun. Chiitoitsu is incompatible due to its usage of pairs.
Value
This yaku is set at 2 han. However, the number of kans significantly increases the hand's value. Even with the minimum 3 kan of simples, they generate a fu count of 8 fu each, for a total of 24 additional fu to the base 20. So, at a minimum, this yaku is valued at 2 han and 50 fu, which is the equivalent of 3 han and 25 fu.
