1. Engineering Calculations Disclaimer
Our industrial calculators (Weight, MAWP, Wall Thickness, Hydrotest, EMD, Pipe Schedule) provide engineering estimates based on standard ASTM/ASME formulas and density values:
- Calculator results are estimates for preliminary engineering
- Final design must be verified by a qualified engineer
- Pressure ratings, wall thickness for pressure vessels/piping require code-compliant detailed design
- Actual material weights may vary ±5% based on mill tolerances
- SteelDesk.in is NOT liable for engineering decisions made solely on our calculator output
2. WPS / PQR Document Disclaimer
Welding Procedure Specifications and Procedure Qualification Records generated by our tool:
- Are templates following ASME Section IX format
- Must be reviewed and approved by a certified welding engineer before use
- Must be qualified by actual coupon testing at NABL accredited lab for PQR validity
- Test results entered in our tool must be from actual physical tests — not theoretical
- Final acceptance by client (L&T, BHEL, IOCL etc.) depends on their specific QA requirements
- SteelDesk.in is NOT liable for weld failures, tender rejections, or QA non-compliance
3. Tender Information Disclaimer
