Architects want architecturally exposed structural steel (AESS) on projects to meet their expectations for appearance, budget, quality and structural integrity. Fabrication, erection and acceptance criteria can be difficult to define in the project documents, leading to disputes between the architect and the contractor over what was desired versus what was bid. Participants in this program will see how they can better plan, design and more effectively communicate the desired appearance for exposed structural steel in a format that contractors can understand.
