AISC Launches Chatbot with Decades of Technical Expertise
June 24, 2025
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CHICAGO - Structural steel designers with technical questions can now go straight to the authoritative information they need at lightning speed thanks to Clark, a new AI chatbot from the American Institute of Steel Construction.
"AISC literally wrote the book on structural steel--and has for more than a century," said AISC Director of Technology Integration Luke Faulkner. "AISC has hundreds of thousands of pages of go-to, trusted publications like the Steel Construction Manual. Clark is designed to cut straight through that vast library to find the answer to a designer's specific technical question."
Clark is a free resource that’s been trained on the Steel Construction Manual, Seismic Design Manual, all AISC standards, and all AISC design guides. It’ll always cite the source for specific information, and it’s a closed system that can’t pick up bad habits from users.
