Steel strong since 1972
In 1972 a small, local group of North and South Carolina steel erectors formed a non-profit organization that was then known as the Steel Erectors Association of the Carolinas (SEAC). Later, with the addition of members from Virginia, the association changed its name to the Steel Erectors Association of Virginia and the Carolinas (SEAVAC). The organization quickly grew to represent steel professionals and associated companies throughout the United States and in 1992 became known as Steel Erectors Association of America.
