Structural steel and miscellaneous metals subcontractors fabricate and erect the steel frame of a building and the metal work that hangs off it — beams, columns, joists, deck, bracing and bolted or welded connections on the structural side, plus stairs, railings, ladders, embeds, and architectural metals on the misc side. On commercial jobs they price from the structural drawings and Division 5 spec, produce and submit shop drawings, coordinate erection sequence with concrete and decking, and bring the cranes, welders, and rigging crews the work demands.

When a GC is sourcing a structural steel subcontractor, they're weighing scope and credentials: who can fabricate and erect the frame and the misc-metals scope — stairs, rails, embeds — who's licensed and insured for it, and who has done similar commercial work. The structural drawings, the Division 5 spec, and the connection schedule define the work, including tonnage, the fabrication and erection split, and decking inclusion; what a GC wants from a sub is confidence they can perform that scope, an honest read on the shop-drawing lead time that often gates the schedule, and the right license and insurance — AISC Certified Erector status is a common ask on larger commercial work. Every listing here puts the sub's trades, service area, and Florida license up front, with phone and website on the profile, so a GC can shortlist structural steel subs and reach out directly.
Structural steel erection is a state-licensed trade in Florida, regulated by the Construction Industry Licensing Board (CILB) under the DBPR as a specialty contractor classification. Like other CILB trades the license comes in two tiers — certified, which authorizes statewide work, and registered, which is limited to the local jurisdiction that issued the competency card. Separate from the DBPR license, GCs often look for AISC Certified Fabricator and AISC Certified Erector designations on larger commercial work — those are industry quality certifications, not state licenses, but they show up in spec books as a baseline requirement.
Yes. Structural steel erection is a CILB specialty contractor classification under the DBPR. Certified licenses authorize statewide work; registered licenses are limited to the local jurisdiction that issued the competency card.
No. AISC Certified Fabricator and AISC Certified Erector are industry quality certifications from the American Institute of Steel Construction, not state licenses. Spec books often require AISC certification on top of the DBPR license.
