aims
The association sees itself as a discussion partner for the steel industry and steel construction companies . He is also in contact with executing companies and engineering offices that are placing tenders. The central aim is to convey information about modern steel building materials and construction methods. The association draws attention to steel construction technology through the publication of information materials (partly online). This knowledge is passed on to interested parties in advanced training courses and seminars.
The members take part in national and international bodies and committees and represent the interests of the steel industry there. The association is also involved in the development of standards and guidelines.
