About Sell Structural Engineering Data to AI
The people behind this site read the licences of structural analysis and calculation software, the copyright statutes and the engineering institutions' codes of conduct, keep the passages they quote, and reply to every enquiry personally.
Why it is here
For a structural firm the question is less who owns the calculations than whose confidences they hold. This site puts the codes of conduct beside the copyright rules and the software terms so a firm can sort its job files before anyone values them.
Written for
Principals and directors of structural engineering firms with years of calculations, analysis models and drawings from completed jobs.
What the site covers
This site answers one question, "sell structural engineering data to ai", with a quote form you can use straight away, no account. It adds 4 guides on the questions people ask next. It also publishes a data table to cite (figures and method here) alongside the sources it draws on.
- Can a structural engineer sell calculations and drawings?: Can a structural engineer sell calculations and drawings? Copyright says the firm authored them; the codes of conduct and the software terms set the limits.
- Structural engineer confidentiality and client information: What the NSPE and IStructE codes say about a structural engineer disclosing client information, and what the Board of Ethical Review has decided.
- Structural calculations copyright: who is the author: Who owns copyright in structural calculations: literary works under 17 U.S.C. 102 and the CDPA, the author who creates them, and what a seal adds.
- Structural engineering firm for sale: the job files on their own: Structural engineering firm for sale? The calculations and models can be licensed separately from the business, once client confidences are cleared.
Limits
- We do not compare or recommend analysis software; each row is the vendor's sentence with our brief reading.
- The form never asks for calculations, drawings or a client's name.
- No job file reaches a buyer until the firm has cleared its client confidences.
Accountability
