The first solution did not work—but instead of giving up, the student leans closer, asks why, and begins again. In that small burst of curiosity is the heart of structural engineering: observing behavior, learning from a result, and imagining a better design.

Conversation history and export capabilities are just two of the new features available on Clark, the American Institute of Steel Construction’s (AISC’s) AI tool that helps practicing professionals easily access information about structural steel design. "Clark is designed to enable structural engineers and architects to do their best work without manually flipping through thousands of pages of standards and guidance," said AISC Director of Technology Integration Luke Faulkner.

Bridges, monuments, civic halls, and cultural landmarks were built with the confidence that concrete would endure. However, the high alkalinity that makes concrete’s cement matrix protective to the embedded steel, passivating it and preventing corrosion, is not permanent.

The structural building components industry will come together September 14–18 in Columbus, Ohio, for BCMC & Framer Summit 2026. Presented by the Structural Building Components Association (SBCA), BCMC (Building Component Manufacturers Conference) is the premier event for component manufacturers, suppliers, framers, and other industry professionals.
