The ADG
difference
Our commitment to creative yet practical engineering
is what sets us apart as technical experts. However it’s
the personal involvement of our leaders, combined
with the importance we place on the relationships we
build both in the office and on the job site which set
us apart in delivery.
us operate strongly as part of the greater project team,
working alongside architects, building contractors,
project managers and sub contractors. We believe
in involving ourselves in a project’s broader objectives
in order to work as an integrated, powerful team which
together drives project delivery.

We begin every project by listening to our clients
to ensure we understand their needs and ensure the
most appropriate solutions are carefully evaluated
from a cost, efficiency and technical viewpoint.
A multi-disciplinary service offering affords us a
unique perspective and approach to design. We
are able to confer with experts across Structural,
Temporary Works / Construction Services, Facade,
Civil and Hydraulic departments under the same
roof in order to deliver a complete solution to a
project. This integrated insight allows us, as a team,
to foresee risk, overcome potential issues and create
seamless efficiencies in design.
The senior managers of our company lead by
example in demonstrating a collaborative,
challenging approach to decision making. Strong
project delivery requires an understanding of the
broader issues of a project and the ability to quickly
resolve fundamental issues which arise. This often
requires us to look at solutions in a broader sense
than from a purely engineering perspective.
Our job doesn’t end when our designs are completed
- we are with our clients every step of the way,
and see every project through to final completion.

In addition to technical expertise, we have

the support of the best industry engineering
management, CAD, BIM and computer modelling
and visualisation practices. They are integral to
project delivery success. We collaborate with an
experienced, proactive technical team and employ
advanced drafting and modelling software.
Our culture of hands-on design and accountability sees

We believe in always moving forward. If we…
…require advanced technology, we find it.
…need to think about a problem differently
to achieve the right outcome, we do it.
…have an idea which will save
our clients time, money and
risk, we speak up.
ADG in
construction
The ADG difference brings a unique and innovative approach to construction, which sets us apart from other
engineering firms. We consider every site’s individual constraints as opportunities. We then leverage the best
of our technology and our experience to ensure our clients get maximum value from their engineering and
construction dollars.

Our extensive capabilities and experience spans across a broad range of sectors within the construction
industry, ensuring the latest construction methods, materials and procedures are at the forefront of
every project we undertake. Through engaging with our clients we assess the most suitable construction
methodology for their requirements and detail the engineering works required for implementation.

We provide a full range of temporary works and construction engineering services across multiple sectors,
focusing on the development of safe, considered and innovative solutions to the most challenging problems
encountered in the construction of projects. Our team pride themselves on working seamlessly with all
project stakeholders, ensuring no solution is developed in isolation and without consideration of the potential
implications on other areas of the project.

Our team also understands that providing a complete engineering service is not limited to the production
of appropriate engineering design solutions. Continued collaboration and communication throughout the
development and implementation of our engineering solutions ensures that our clients are supported until the
project has been completed.

A broad ranging exposure to a variety of projects means we are well placed to provide engineering services to
a diverse variety of clients within the construction industry, having worked in the following areas:

• High-Rise / Mixed-Use Residential Buildings

• Commercial Structures
• Exhibition Centres and Stadiums

ADG has grown to provide a full service 4D BIM built 3D models, 2D drawings and O&M data
offering. The 4D approach not only addresses the into a cohesive and searchable system
apparent issues of safety during construction but • CMPs and 3D modelling of CMP.
also, the effect of temporary works on program,
resourcing and sequencing during the construction
phase.

The fourth dimension we refer to is time. When it

comes to temporary works, time has an impact on
both cost and programme delivery. With a large
proportion of the cost being the hire of equipment,
it is clear that if you can reduce hire time, you can
make significant savings. 4D programme solutions
can be developed from BIM data, outlining not just
the 3D models of construction equipment, formwork
and shoring, but the timings of delivery, installation,
dismantle and connection from site.
