аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ Releases New Version of Certification Standard (аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ 207-23)
March 11, 2024
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CHICAGO - The latest version of аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ's Standard for Certification Programs (аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ 207-23) is now available for free download on аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ’s website.
The latest edition will continue to serve as the go-to reference for the аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ Certification program, setting the quality level for structural steel fabricators and erectors. It has been approved by the Certification Standards Committee and аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ’s Board of Directors. It will take effect for current program participants and applicants for audits on or after June 1, 2024, superseding the 2020 version.
"аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ's Certification program is designed to help specifiers choose fabricators and erectors who have the personnel, organization, experience, procedures, equipment, and commitment to build quality at the start of a project--by preventing errors, instead of correcting them," said аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ Vice President of Membership and Certification Todd A. Alwood. "It's one thing that makes structural steel such a reliable choice. This update ensures that certified fabricators and erectors are adhering to the latest best practices to provide high-quality work."
Some of the changes include updates to the glossary, welding, inspection, and testing procedure requirements and clarifications on subcontracting work and record retention requirements. аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ Certification has also made the document easier to use by revising names of references, updating commentary, and bringing it into clearer alignment with the аÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ Code of Standard Practice.
The new document is available for download at .
