Zamil Steel Buildings Vietnam Co., Ltd expects to alleviate clients’ concerns for quality inspection and saving their money by ensuring the quality of all projects strictly follows the AISC Standards for Steel Building Structures & Sophisticated Paint Endorsement.

Established in 1921, the AISC is an internationally recognised organisation with its mission to support the construction and structural steel design community in the US. The institute has been involved in various activities such as research, specification and code development, technical assistance, quality certification and market development.

The AISC’s Standard for Steel Building Structures is widely recognised among North American builders and contractors in assessing the fabricator’s capability to satisfy a project quality needs. The standard includes all requirements for certification of the facilities that fabricate and supply structural steel frames for buildings and a quality management system with functions and responsibilities followed.

Structural steel fabricators must undergo an initial evaluation programme, audited directly by AISC’s independent auditors in order to be certified, and they’re subject to yearly review. The audit scope includes all functions of structural steel fabrication from the receipt of contract until final delivery but not the erection process.

A Sophisticated Paint Endorsement was an enclosed programme in the AISC’s Standard for Steel Building Structures Certification, which inspects the fabricator’s painting facility for complex protective coating systems, such as zincs, epoxies, urethanes, and multi-coat systems.

An AISC certified fabricator for steel building structures is automatically certified for conventional steel building structures. By qualifying AISC’s Standard for Steel Building Structures, fabricators are confirmed by the AISC to have the facilities, personnel, organisational experience, procedures, knowledge, equipment and commitment for structural steel building construction.

An AISC fabricator is often entrusted with large public service and institutional buildings, heavy manufacturing plants, powerhouses, metal producing/rolling buildings, stadiums, auditoriums, high-rise buildings, and petro/chemical plants.
