Executive officer files, 1917-1993.

Executive officer files are fragmentary. A small file from the Washington office describes the Institute's activities coordinating the steel industry during World War I. Records of the Engineering Division describe the developments of new codes and standards; the competition posed by plastics as a substitute for metals and between steel and wood as a building material; the use of robotics in the 1980s; and a survey of safety in sheet mills.
