In-House Engineering That Drives Every Project Forward

At Austin Construction Group, Inc., engineering isn’t just part of what we do—it’s the foundation of everything we build. ACG offers full-spectrum engineering services to support civil, structural, and MEP projects from concept to completion.

Unlike most general contractors, we don’t rely on outside firms for design or permitting. Our in-house engineering team allows us to fast-track timelines, optimize costs, and ensure unmatched quality control throughout the entire construction process.

Our Engineering Capabilities

• Structural Engineering

From foundations to elevated platforms, we design and review structural systems that meet Florida’s toughest codes—including FEMA floodplain requirements. Our engineers have extensive experience with concrete, steel, and specialty structures.

• Civil/Site Engineering

We handle site layout, grading, utilities, drainage, and erosion control with an eye for efficiency and environmental compliance. Our team is highly skilled in securing permits from FDEP, SWFWMD, and other local authorities.

• MEP Design & Coordination

Our engineers prepare complete mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) packages to streamline building construction and renovations. All plans are developed in-house and coordinated for code compliance and field efficiency.

• Permitting & Code Compliance

Whether it’s a local building permit, a stormwater permit, or a utility connection approval, ACG navigates the process quickly. Our established relationships with permitting agencies help keep projects moving without delays.

• Quality Control & Value Engineering

Every ACG project benefits from engineer-led QA/QC. We also provide constructability reviews and value engineering options to identify cost-saving alternatives—without sacrificing quality or performance.

Our engineering team has led the successful design and execution of critical projects for:

• Port Tampa Bay
• City of Tampa
• City of Oldsmar
• Trademark Metals Recycling
• And many more public and private clients.

“ACG did such a great job on design and construction that the City of Tampa intends to use ACG for our high-profile projects.  Austin has been instrumental in the preparation of conceptual plans and 3-dimensional renderings for several projects which has been instrumental in helping me get these projects funded.”
