What We Do
When it comes to decarbonization, steel is the answer! Discover the vital role of American structural steel in sustainable construction as the premier green building material, leading the market in transparency, circularity, and flexibility. The domestic steel industry utilizes electric arc furnace technology, recycling up to 93% of scrap steel—including cars and appliances—into high-quality structural components like beams and columns. This process emits 75% less CO2 than traditional methods, positioning the U.S. as a leader in low-carbon steel production.

The American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) is a technical institute leading innovation in the structural steel industry by overseeing cutting-edge research, developing design resources, and producing guidance to support sustainability in the built environment. AISC is your sustainability thought partner - turn to us for green building practices, EPDs, and other tools for life-cycle assessments and pathways for working toward net-zero emissions.
