AISC Certification

C&F Steel Design, Inc. is pleased to announce that we have been awarded the following certifications from the American Institute of Steel Construction:

What is AISC Certification?

The American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) is a non-partisan, not for profit, technical institute and trade association which supports the structural steel construction industry in their shared mission to build better, safer, and more economical buildings, bridges and other steel-framed structures.

AISC certified companies adheres to a rigorous set of standards of quality and safety for structural steel fabrication and/or erection.

An AISC certification sets the quality standard for the steel industry and is the most recognized national quality Certification program for the structural steel industry. Companies that are AISC Certified have been through a rigorous initial evaluation and are subject to annual reviews. An annual independent audit confirms that companies have the personnel, knowledge, training, organization, equipment, experience, capability, procedures, and commitment to produce the required quality of work.

What does that mean for you?

The benefits of AISC certification are many. For one, it assists firms in achieving the optimum level of quality from the start of every project. Our programs focus on the entire process of fabrication and erection. Our goal is to install quality structures from the start by focusing on error prevention rather than error correction.
