The Association of Iron and Steel Electrical Engineers was organized in 1907. In October 1909, the Technical Report No. 6 was adapted, originally titled "The General Crane Specification," as a bidders' specification for electrical overhead traveling cranes. From this 107-year history, the AIST Cranes Technology Committee has successfully maintained a healthy membership and traveled through constantly changing technological advancements. The evolution, ambitions, membership and collaborations of this group will be revealed.
