The American Iron and Steel Institute has selected Dan Snyder as its new vice president, construction program. He is responsible for leadership of AISI’s construction programs, including commercial buildings, codes and standards, and transportation/infrastructure. Dan was formerly senior director of business development at AISI. He succeeds Robert J. Wills, P.E., who recently retired after nearly 33 years of service with the institute.
Snyder served in AISI’s construction program for 25 years. He helped to establish the Short Span Steel Bridge Alliance in 2007, growing membership to over 100 organizations and increasing market share for steel bridges with spans under 140 feet. He led the marketing initiative BuildSteel, which successfully raised industry awareness of the benefits of cold-formed steel framing. He also led AISI’s strategic planning and program implementation directives for metal roofing, metal wall panels and steel utility poles.
