Whatever your interest in steel-framed construction - as a homeowner, trade contractor, builder, designer or developer - we trust you will find answers to your questions here, or directions to where else to look.

NASH in New Zealand and Australia was formed in 1982, initially to represent the interests of the fabricators of steel framing systems for housing. Since then, our scope has expanded to include all forms of low-rise steel framed construction. Today our members include specialist steel frame builders as well as suppliers of products and services to the industry.
