Definition
Any engineer who signs and seals documents prepared using a CADD system must possess sufficient understanding of the system's capabilities and limitations to exercise genuine responsible charge over the resulting work product, and must not seal documents produced by a system the engineer cannot adequately evaluate.
Properties
Instance of
UnfamiliarToolCompetenceConstraint
http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#UnfamiliarToolCompetenceConstraint
Case context
Both Engineer A and Engineer B use or oversee use of a CADD system and seal the resulting documents. The constraint requires that each engineer possess the competence necessary to evaluate and take responsible charge of CADD-produced outputs before sealing them.
Confidence
0.87
Constraint statement
Any engineer who signs and seals documents prepared using a CADD system must possess sufficient understanding of the system's capabilities and limitations to exercise genuine responsible charge over the resulting work product, and must not seal documents produced by a system the engineer cannot adequately evaluate.
