The CLIC (Compact LInear Collider) design is based on two-beam acceleration concept developed at CERN, where the RF power is generated by a high current electron-beam (Drive Beam) running parallel to the Main Beam. The Drive Beam is decelerated in special power extraction structures (PETS) and the generated RF power is transferred via waveguides to the accelerating structures (AS). The accelerating gradient must be very high (100 MV/m) to reach the high energy for the electron-positron collisions. To facilitate the matching of the beams, components are assembled in 2-m long modules, of few different types. In some of them the AS are replaced by quadrupoles used for the beam focusing. Their alignment and positioning is made by using the signals from the beam-position monitors (BPM). Special modules are needed in damping region or to carry out dedicated instrumentation and vacuum equipment. The module design and integration has to cope with challenging requirements from the different technical systems. This paper reports the status of the engineering design and reports on the main technical issues.
