The American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC), headquartered in Chicago, is a non-profit technical association and trade organization established in 1921. It serves to advance the use of structural steel in buildings and other applications.


AISC certification is a quality management system certification for steel fabrication facilities, not for products. It covers all departments and functions involved in the process from contract signing to final product delivery. Obtaining AISC certification is crucial for domestic enterprises to break technical barriers and enter the North American market.
