The American Iron and Steel Institute has been reaccredited by the American National Standards Institute under its revised operating procedures for documenting consensus on AISI-sponsored American National Standards. The revised procedures replace the previous version approved June 13, 2017.
AISI serves as Secretariat for two standards-developing committees: 1) the Committee on Specifications, which addresses the broad range of cold-formed steel structural member behavior and design for building construction, and 2) the Committee on Framing Standards, which focuses on cold-formed steel light-frame construction.
These two committees engage a volunteer force of nearly 200 active participants through numerous subcommittees and task groups to develop and maintain a suite of nearly 30 design, installation and test standards. AISI also develops and maintains a suite of design guides and manuals to assist users of the AISI standards.
