The Australian Institute of Building (AIB) was established
in 1951 as the professional body representing the managers of building
and construction firms. AIB promotes excellence
in construction and recognition
for professional builders, and plays a lead role in supporting the
career development of individual building professionals.

The Institute works with more than a dozen universities throughout Australia to ensure that undergraduate and post-graduate training is relevant to the next generation of managers. Additional professional recognition stems from AIB's support for the National Building Professionals Register (NBPR) and the Institute's membership structure.
AIB's membership includes the management of the Asia-pacific's most prestigious building firms, allied professionals in addition to leading academics in this field. Significantly, more than 25% of AIB's membership is Hong Kong and mainland China.
AIB publishes the Construct
magazine and is a partner in the publication of the Australian
Journal of Construction Economics and Building, a leading
peer-reviewed journal on the profession of building and construction.
AIB also organises Construct
2008.
With a proud record of achievement in the area of legislative and building code reform, AIB works with its members to develop an informed position on changes to the regulatory, technical and commercial environment in which the building profession operates.
