This MCP server provides a complete suite of structural engineering tools for reinforced concrete beam design using the Ultimate Strength Design (USD) method. It allows AI agents to perform critical calculations such as calculate_flexural_design to find required steel area, select_reinforcement_bars for practical rebar combinations, calculate_shear_reinforcement for stirrup spacing, and verify_deflection_limit to ensure serviceability. It acts as a bridge between structural engineering principles and AI-driven design workflows.

4 tools expose this connector's capabilities to your AI agent.

select_reinforcement_bars

Suggests a practical combination of standard rebar diameters and quantities to meet the required steel area

verify_deflection_limit

Checks if the beam's calculated deflection stays within acceptable serviceability limits

calculate_flexural_design

Determines the required amount of longitudinal steel reinforcement needed to resist the bending moment

calculate_shear_reinforcement

Determines if shear stirrups are required and calculates the necessary spacing

Calculate the flexural design for a beam with a 5m span, 20kN/m load, 30MPa concrete, 400MPa steel, 300mm width, 500mm height, 40mm cover, and 16mm bar diameter.

The required steel area is 850.5 mm² with an effective depth of 442 mm and a moment capacity of 125.4 kNm.

Suggest bar combinations for a required steel area of 1200 mm² using 12, 16, and 20mm bars in a 300mm wide beam with 30mm minimum spacing.

A practical combination is using 4 bars of 20mm diameter, providing 1256.6 mm² of steel area with 45mm spacing.

Check if a beam with 5mm deflection on a 5000mm span passes the serviceability limit.

Yes, the deflection of 5mm is well within the allowable limit for a 5000mm span.

The tool uses the Ultimate Strength Design (USD) method, which is a standard approach in USA and European structural codes.
