steel standards

Japan sets structural requirements through the Building Standard Law and its enforcement orders, supported by JIS material standards such as JIS G 3101 and JIS G 3136 for seismic grade steel. Fabricators are graded under a national certification scheme, and welding qualification follows JIS Z 3801 and related standards.
