TDM365 Legal
Engineering & AI Disclaimer
TDM365 is designed to improve technical understanding and decision quality, not replace accountable engineering judgement.
Last updated: 7 October 2026
Purpose
TDM365 helps welding and metallurgy professionals obtain an adequate overview of a technical problem by considering relevant facts, evidence, engineering mechanisms, standards or requirements, uncertainties and available options. Its purpose is to make it easier to understand the problem and consider a sound, informed technical decision.
Not professional sign-off
TDM365 is not an engineering authority, regulator, notified body, certification body, responsible designer or competent person. Its outputs do not constitute formal engineering approval, statutory acceptance, code certification, release authority or project authorisation.
Verification
Critical conclusions must be checked against the applicable edition of governing codes and standards, project specifications, qualified procedures, drawings, material certificates, test results and any other controlling evidence relevant to the case.
Uncertainty
AI systems can misunderstand context, omit information or produce incorrect output. TDM365 is designed to make uncertainty and missing evidence visible where possible, but users must still apply professional judgement and independent verification appropriate to the consequence of the decision.
Emergency and safety-critical situations
TDM365 should not be treated as an emergency response service or as the sole decision-maker for an immediate safety-critical condition. Follow applicable site, organisational, regulatory and emergency procedures.
