Who We Are

The National Steel Bridge Alliance (NSBA), a division of the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC), is dedicated to advancing the state-of-the-art of steel bridge design and construction.

This national, not-for-profit organization is a unified voice representing the entire steel bridge community. In addition to structural steel fabricators and producers, NSBA brings together the agencies and groups who have a stake in the success of steel bridge construction, including representatives from AASHTO, FHWA, state DOTs, bridge consultants, erectors, and representatives of the coatings, fastener, and welding industries. The NSBA’s mission is to establish steel as the material of choice for bridges and the NSBA’s goal is to increase steel’s share of the bridge market.

NSBA Regional Directors are the primary liaisons between the NSBA and bridge owners. They assist fabricators, designers, and owners in making the best bridge design selections possible. In addition, the NSBA provides steel superstructure technical assistance and technical reviews at various stages of drawing completion.
