The Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) is India's national standards body. It develops Indian Standards (IS codes) and operates product certification schemes.
What BIS does
BIS publishes the IS standards that govern materials and design — including structural steel (IS 2062), loads (IS 875), seismic design (IS 1893) and galvanising (IS 4759).
Relevance to structures
Solar and steel structures are designed and fabricated to these BIS standards, giving buyers a common, verifiable basis for quality.
