2013 Competition Guide

Rules & Official Clarifications

The RULES and OFFICIAL CLARIFICATIONS are found on the AISC website at:

http://www.aisc.org/steelbridge

The rules are posted on the AISC website around the first of August each year and requests for clarification are received from the time of posting until two weeks before the national competition. Clarifications are posted as the Rules Committee comes to a consensus regarding a response to the requests for clarification.  As this happens at an unpredictable rate, it is highly advised that all competitors, hosts, and judges visit the clarification site often.  The rules committee tries to turn around clarification requests in two weeks or less but occasionally go longer.

While the Rules Committee tries diligently to create a consistent and coherent set of rules the rules are not really tried until they are implemented.  The Rules Committee attempts to be timely in responding to requests for clarifications so that all competitors, hosts, and judges have a clear understanding of the expectations.
