2024 Standards Forum
The Forum aims at facilitating strategic discussions on codes and standards needs and priorities across standards development organizations, and organizations that rely on the development of those standards. Also, to facilitate discussions on how to collaborate in accelerating the development of codes and standards and the NRC's endorsement of these codes and standards in its regulations and regulatory guides. The Forum is an interactive meeting, sponsored by the NRC, that engages stakeholders, such as standards development organizations (e.g. ACI, AISC, ANS, ASCE, ASME, IEEE, etc.), industry representatives, research organizations, academia, the general public, and NRC staff.
