Where the answer depends on where you are

Results in this subject depend on national law or official convention, so one generic tool cannot serve every reader. Markets where the rules differ enough to need separate treatment: US, GB, IN, AU.

Before relying on a result

This subject carries safety consequences. Published tools state the standard they implement, and the standard governs, not the tool.

This subject covers load-bearing calculation. Results never replace a qualified engineer’s sign-off.
