  • The British Steelwork Association was formed in 1929 to promote the uses of structural steel and steelwork by propaganda and market development. Later on propaganda and research for sheet steel products was added. The Association was reorganised in 1937 on the basis of four member associations, the British Iron and Steel Federation (BISF), the Heavy Steel Associations, the Sheet Makers' Conference and the British Constructional Steelwork Association. Under its new constitution the basis of the Association was extended so that it was now in a position to undertake work for any section of the industry in developing the markets for iron and steel products and by-products. In 1947 the Association was wound up and its work was taken on by a new department of the BISF.
