"My membership of the Australian Steel Institute (ASI) has been beneficial at both a personal and business level.  ASI continuing education seminars are both affordable & practical, their Technical Notes have assisted in establishing company procedures with confidence.  ASI works hard to improve the quality and competitiveness of the steel industry in Australia."

"The ASI Bookshop and eLibrary was such a great source of information for kickstarting my career as a structural engineer. Highly recommend to any recent graduate engineers interested in structural steel and connection design. The structural steel simple and rigid connection series sets are fantastic, my go to resource for connection design"

"ASI offers the best of both theory and industry experience. The variety and timeliness of their industry information and advocacy, resource material and training combined with their exceptionally high quality, approachability and professionalism makes them an easy choice for membership and ongoing professional development"
