The Tool is a preliminary design aid only, intended to assist with the visual exploration and conceptual development of building components. It is not a substitute for professional design, structural engineering, or compliance verification. The Tool does not produce fabrication drawings, construction drawings, or specifications suitable for building, procurement, or regulatory approval.
Outputs have not been verified against any building regulations, standards, or codes of practice — including the Building Regulations 2010 (England and Wales), associated Approved Documents, British Standards or any international equivalent.
