R³ consortium members receive a litany of benefits: from pioneering holistic steel system technology and directing the future of innovative construction to gaining access to renowned researchers. The challenges are large, but together, we can realize our vision of interconnected reliable, robust, and responsible steel system design.
Membership Details:
We are seeking industry sponsors from trade associations, steel mills and steel processors, manufacturers of steel construction products, and other generally interested organizations. This funding will support pilot projects, helping us obtain external funding resources from government agencies and private foundations alike.
Levels of annual donation to the Consortium are as follows:
| Steel Mills or Steel Processors | $25,000 annually |
| Trade Associations | $10,000 annually |
| Manufacturers of Steel Construction Products | $7,500 annually (minimum) |
| Manufacturers of Allied Products | $5,000 annually (minimum) |

Any minimum donation of $10,000 will give your organization a spot on the Advisory Board, enabling your team to provide input to guide our progress. The advisory board meets quarterly, and membership runs from June 1st through May 31st the following year. We believe in transparency and good stewardship of donations and will therefore annually report financial information and project updates to our sponsors.
