AISC Specification

I have been asked what is the national standard for steel design and
construction in the United States. My reply was that the AISC spec is
the de facto standard. But is this true or is there a national standard
of which I am unaware. I have seen large engineering companies in the
US put out their own specifications but they also invariably quote some
part of the AISC spec.
