Moddex has joined the Association of Consulting Architects (ACA) as a National Knowledge Partner, strengthening our support for architectural practices across Australia with expert content and resources on specification, compliance and design.

The ACA is the peak body for consulting architects, representing practices of all sizes nationwide.

Welcoming the new partnership, ACA Chief Executive Officer Angelina Pillai said, “We’re so pleased to welcome Moddex as a National Knowledge Partner. This partnership gives our members easy access to practical insights and support to navigate codes, standards, and design choices with confidence. It’s collaborations like this that help us give practices the knowledge and tools they need to run their businesses.”

Through the partnership, Moddex will share specialist content on topics including best practice specification of barrier and access systems, navigating compliance standards such as AS1428 and the DDA, designing for safety and accessibility, and the role of pre-engineered systems in creating smarter project outcomes.

Moddex Specifications & Events Lead Riesha Mould said the partnership reflects Moddex’s commitment to supporting architects at every stage of design: “At Moddex, we’re passionate about working alongside architects to make complex compliance requirements simple. Partnering with the ACA allows us to share practical knowledge and resources that empower architects to specify with confidence and deliver safer, more accessible built environments to a wider audience than we can reach alone.”

At Moddex, we’re committed to helping architects design with clarity and certainty. Our insights on topics such as high-quality BIM content show how architects can streamline workflows and reduce risk in specifications. Architects will have access to fresh perspectives and resources on topics such as:

Best practice specification of barrier and access systems including how to avoid the risks of vague substitution clauses like “or equivalent”.
Navigating compliance standards and codes with confidence including AS1428 handrail requirements and DDA requirements for outdoor handrails.
Designing for safety, accessibility, and long-term lifecycle performance while also considering inclusive design principles, balancing style with function and powdercoating for corrosion protection.
The role of pre-engineered systems in creating smarter project outcomes and why they’re not the same as ‘off-the-shelf’.
