In my job we have certain design requirements that are contractually guaranteed to customers and the FAA, and engineers could be criminally liable depending on the level on negligence...basically, you follow them. When we have requirements like that, our design procedures use shall. Not can, should, verify, check, receive approval, or any possibly ambiguous term. It's SHALL, as in, you will be ass raped if you do not do this. How anyone could ever think it means something different is beyond me.
