Prefabrication and Modular Construction

Advancing the building industry with modular precision.

Prefabrication and modular construction have advanced the building industry and put productivity and safety at the forefront.

We have an experienced team who are available to show you what’s possible.

We are not only leading the way when it comes to prefabrication and modular construction technology but are highly proficient in its use and consistently apply this construction method to our HVAC mechanical services project work. This work can also significantly reduce our clients’ overall project costs.

Construction projects are evolving, and prefabrication and modular construction are two of the driving forces.

For decades, the industry has relied on construction work occurring solely on-site.Today, projects are increasingly being built off-site in controlled workshop environments before being transported to location for final preparations and installation providing numerous benefits to the client and their project.

Utilising specialised tools and technology, and through better project planning, our team help our clients achieve superior and safer project delivery.

Increased speed of onsite construction, reduced construction error, decreased construction downtime and improved safety onsite are some of the more visible benefits to our clients. With improved quality control, increased productivity, efficient use of resources and reduced environmental impact, our technology will take your building to the next level.

Reach new heights using prefabrication and modular construction

Building the future, one module at a time.

We can deliver a range of HVAC equipment using this construction method, from start to finish, including:

Our Prefabrication and Modular Construction Capabilities

Advisory Services

As a leading provider of HVAC design, construction and maintenance services, our team of highly skilled specialists understand the built environment and have extensive experience across various building types and industry sectors.

Through our specialist knowledge, we provide accurate and unbiased advice, and take the time to listen and consider the right design solution to meet your specific needs. Our team will review all aspects of your project early on in the process so that we are able to proactively identify issues, solve problems, and highlight and eliminate unwanted costs. From system design recommendations and alternative equipment selections, to balancing construction costs with long-term operating costs, we aim to satisfy your requirements without compromising on quality, function, or performance.

Mechanical System Design and Engineering

It’s safe to say, we know our way around good design and we understand the value of getting it the right first time. Our team don’t take it lightly that you’ve invested a lot of time and money into your mechanical system, and you want that value to last.

We’ll make sure we understand your requirements and design a HVAC mechanical system that ensures a cost-effective balance of space, efficiency, performance and durability.

Integrated BIM and Management

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a highly effective tool in the design, construction and operation of a building and it’s a tool we’ve mastered. BIM enables real-time improvements in programming, productivity, site safety and fabrication strategies.

BIM is much more than a 3D model and due to geometry and stored data, the BIM software is able to update the model to reflect any changes that are made. This allows for a more collaborative and consistent process for all parties involved.

Our team of in-house BIM experts will show you how prefabrication and modular construction can be utilised on your next project. From designing into the building to optimising module sizes for your specific mechanical systems or managing the unique design constraints of your project, our experienced and knowledgeable team can show you what is possible.

Specialist Team

We only employ the best in the business which means our team brings years of experience to every job and a firm commitment to getting things done. We can manage all aspects of the prefabrication and modular construction process in-house, from design and assembly to transport and installation, and will work hard to deliver your project to the highest standard.

In-house Duct, Pipe, Lagging and Welding Services

We directly employ and train specialist tradespeople needed for all stages of construction, guaranteeing your project is delivered by the best of the best.

This ensures we are well prepared for your project, capable of adapting, and, if needed, can find solutions to construction issues as we maintain control of the job.

Dedicated Facilities

Each of our office locations have a dedicated workshop facility to support all our prefabrication, modular construction and preassembly work, with the largest being our purpose-built 3,600 sqm workshop facility located in Queanbeyan, New South Wales.

Installation Logistics

With over 35 years in business, we have the skill and understanding to manage all aspects of the prefabrication and modular construction process. From purchasing and production, to crane lifts, deliveries and transport, we know what is required to ensure a smooth process and have the team on hand to get it done.

Design for Energy Efficiency and Sustainability

The demand for environmentally friendly buildings that incorporate energy efficiency and sustainability solutions (or Ecologically Sustainable Development – ESD) is on the rise.

Design choices, materials, equipment selection, and use of the natural environment are important considerations in the design of your HVAC system, and we will work with you to meet your energy efficiency and sustainability goals.

By engaging a prefabrication construction process, you are building in a more sustainable way, cutting project reworks, construction waste, and lessening the use of heavy machinery onsite minimising your carbon footprint, as well as a reduction in water usage.

Client testimonials

“Benmax continued the development of their BIM model to allow for full prefabrication of the pipework systems significantly reducing onsite works, resulting in a reduction to the mechanical and overall construction programmes. In our view, the project team as a whole has delivered an outstanding product, a view which has been also expressed by a wide range of industry experts.”

“The use of prefabricated materials by Benmax in the build resulted in a reduction in installation time while also ensuring best practice safety standards onsite by reducing crane lifts, high-level work and manual handling. The completed project and standard of workmanship produced by the Benmax team was a key element in the successful delivery of the project.”

“The collaboration and innovation between Benmax and FCC in the prefabrication of the mechanical services plantroom resulted in significant reduction in crane lifts, substantial gains to the construction programme, as well as ensuring best practice safety practices were demonstrated.”
