Your IP address and browser user agent string may also be collected to help with spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at automattic.com/privacy. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

3 — Engineering Calculators and Technical Content

The calculators, formulas, and technical content on ShaiLearning are provided for educational and preliminary reference purposes only, including preparation for the FE and PE licensing examinations.

All calculator results are based on formulas consistent with industry standards including IEEE, NEC, and NCEES references, and are intended to support learning — not to replace licensed engineering judgment, project-specific analysis, or review by the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ).

Any engineering decision made in professional practice must be independently verified by a licensed professional engineer against applicable codes, standards, and project requirements. ShaiLearning makes no warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, or fitness for any particular engineering application of the calculator outputs.

No calculator inputs, values, or results are stored, transmitted, or shared. All calculations occur locally in your browser.
