AST Designs plug-ins are drafting, visualization, and documentation tools for stage, lighting, and rigging design. They are not engineering, structural analysis, or load-certification tools.

The geometry, dimensions, weights, capacities, and any other values shown or produced by our plug-ins are for drawing and planning purposes only. They must not be relied on for structural, load-bearing, safety, or life-safety decisions.

Every rig, hang, load path, and piece of hardware you plan with our tools must be reviewed and approved by a qualified engineer or competent person before it is built, loaded, or used in a live environment. You are responsible for verifying all real-world specifications against the manufacturer's data and the codes and standards that apply to your work.

AST Designs makes no warranty that the plug-ins are accurate, complete, or fit for any particular purpose, and accepts no liability for any injury, loss, or damage arising from their use. The tools are provided "as is."

Short version, for the install screen / plug-in help / footer: AST Designs tools are for drafting and visualization only, not engineering. All loads, rigging, and safety must be verified by a qualified engineer before use.
