CSI — What is It!
The Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) is an individual
membership technical society whose core purpose is to improve the
process of creating and sustaining the built environment. The Institute
provides technical information and products, continuing education,
professional conferences, and product shows to enhance communication
among all disciplines of nonresidential building design and construction
and meet the industry’s need for a common system of organizing
and presenting construction information. CSI’s more than
18,000 members include architects, engineers, constructors, specifiers
of construction products, suppliers of construction products, building
owners, and facilities managers. Founded in 1948, CSI is headquartered
outside Washington in Alexandria, VA, and has 143 local chapters
nationwide.
CSI — What in it For You!
CSI provides members with resources for success, as well as exceptional
networking opportunities. With buildings going up faster and faster
we must rely on written and graphic communication to avoid litigation
and ensure that nothing falls through the cracks. Never before
has the industry had such a critical need for well-trained professionals.
Never before has CSI offered so many opportunities for training – many
from your very own computer!
Everyone in construction knows about the 16 Divisions. But do you
know about the organization that created the 16 Divisions? Membership
in The Construction Specifications Institute will enable you to
shrink the challenges of today’s operating environment down
to size. Since 1948, we’ve been meeting the industry’s
need for a common system and language to organize, standardize,
and communicate construction information. CSI has been the industry
leader in fulfilling this goal through education – and through
the development of technical support products to write specifications
such as MasterFormatô, UniFormatô, and SectionFormatô.
For uniformity in construction drawings CSI developed the Uniform
Drawing System™.
