It is intended for informational purposes Standard is the result of the deliberations of a balanced committee, the membership of which included engineers, fabricators, erectors, quality control consultants, a code official, a state bridge official, and a general contractor. This Standard is proprietary and has been cre-ated for the sole use of the AISC Certification Program as part of its policies and procedures for auditing and Standard brings together provisions from four individual predecessor standards relating to the four industry segments: Steel building Fabrication (Chapter 2), metal compo-nent manufacturing (Chapter 3), Steel bridge Fabrication (Chapters 4, , , and ), and Steel erection (Chapter 5) that have been a part of the AISC Certification Program since its beginnings in 1975.

4 Chapter 1 provides general requirements that apply to the four industry segments and Chapters 2, 3, 4, , , and 5 contain supplementary requirements in addition to those in Chapter 1. This revision of the Standard includes editorial changes to the chapter and section headings intended to facilitate implementation of the Committee thanks Seth Bransky for his contribution as a member of the Committee for part of this Standard was approved by the Certification standards Committee:Michael A.
