The AGM DFMA Engineering Package
Supporting Builders Who Want to Build Better, Faster, and at Scale
1. DFMA Structural Engineering
Structural systems designed for modular,
not adapted from traditional construction.
We engineer:
-
Structural steel chassis and sub-frames
-
Floor and roof systems
-
Portal frames and load paths
-
Modular lifting, transport, and installation considerations
-
Structural certification for modular buildings
-
Integration with light gauge steel framing
What this means for builders:
-
Faster approvals
-
Clear load-path logic
-
Reduced design risk
-
Stronger, safer modular structures
-
Predictable results across repeated modules
2. FrameCAD Light Gauge
Steel Design & Detailing
High-volume, extremely accurate LGS systems for modular builds.
We engineer:
-
Wall frames, trusses, and panel systems
-
Optimised layouts for manufacturing efficiency
-
Material usage optimisation
-
Coordination with structural steel
-
High-volume repeated modules
What this means for builders:
-
Faster manufacturing
-
Reduced waste
-
Lower rework
-
Scalable production capacity
3. BIM-Driven Modular Detailing & Coordination (Revit & Tekla)
A unified model where everything works together — before the project reaches site.
Our digital engineering workflow includes:
-
Full 3D modelling of the modular system
-
Clash detection and coordination
-
Integration of structural steel + LGS
-
Tekla detailing
-
Shop drawings
-
File-to-factory documentation
-
Assembly sequencing for repeated builds
What this means for builders:
-
Zero guesswork
-
Faster approvals
-
Clear buildability
-
Confident fabrication
-
Predictable installation
This is where modular efficiency actually comes from.

A clear, confident path into modular construction.
For traditional builders preparing to shift into modular,
AGM provides:
-
Early-stage feasibility
-
Concept-level advice
-
Modular methodology and DFMA guidance
-
System design
-
Cost and timeline clarity
-
A replicable model for future modular projects
What this means for builders:
-
Certainty in every decision
-
No need for an internal design team
-
A smooth and supported transition
-
A system that grows with your business
For Modular Builders
Your Demand Is Growing. Your Capacity Should Too.
As modular construction accelerates across Australia, many established modular builders are held back by one thing:
Internal technical bottlenecks.
Design teams reach capacity.
Deadlines compress.
Overflow becomes unmanageable.
And opportunities slip away.
AGM becomes your DFMA engine — supporting you to deliver more projects without increasing overhead.
We help modular
builders who want to:
-
A clear roadmap into modular construction
-
Certainty in design, cost, timelines, and methodology
-
Support from experts with decades of modular delivery experience
-
A repeatable system they can use for future projects
-
Structural engineering that eliminates risk
-
Modular-ready BIM documentation
-
A pathway to high-volume, repeated builds
Everything we do is built to support speed, accuracy, and repeatable delivery — the foundations of modular success.
When AGM supports
your technical workload,
your team can:
-
Focus on client experience
-
Win higher-value projects
-
Operate with certainty
-
Grow without adding unnecessary internal overhead
This is how modular builders scale sustainably.
For Builders Transitioning to Modular
Traditional construction is evolving — and the builders who thrive will be those who adapt early.
But transitioning into modular can feel overwhelming without the right expertise.
That’s why AGM provides the DFMA foundation, technical guidance, and coordinated
design system that helps traditional builders make the shift with ease.
Move Into Modular With Total Clarity and Confidence
We support transitioning
builders who want:
