Exploring the Importance of Time Management in Daily Life
The new Sustainability Partner Program established by the American Institute of Steel Construction aims to support structural steel fabricators in becoming more environmentally conscious. These fabricators will receive specialized training to empower them with the necessary tools and skills to successfully tackle sustainability-focused projects while implementing strategies to reduce their carbon footprint.
“Structural steel fabricators play a crucial role in the sustainability of a project, yet this fact often goes unrecognized,” stated Max Puchtel, AISC Director of Sustainability and Government Relations. “Although fabrication contributes less than 8% to the overall carbon footprint of structural steel, the procurement responsibilities of fabricators give them significant upstream influence.”
In order to aid decision-makers in choosing the right fabricator for their projects, AISC has created a list of sustainability partners on the program’s website. This initiative aims to highlight fabricators who have undergone the specialized training and are equipped to meet the sustainability requirements of modern construction projects. By partnering with these certified fabricators, specifiers can ensure that their projects are more environmentally friendly and aligned with sustainable practices.
