Design structural waffle slab systems, calculating geometry, reinforcement, and shear capacity.

4 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides a complete suite of structural engineering tools for designing two-way ribbed concrete systems. It allows engineers to determine physical dimensions using calculate_slab_geometry, calculate necessary steel reinforcement with calculate_reinforcement_requirements, verify safety against punching failure via verify_punching_shear_capacity, and ensure serviceability using check_deflection_limits.

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

calculate_reinforcement_requirements

Requires the geometry object from calculate_slab_geometry. Calculates the necessary steel area for bending and crack control

calculate_slab_geometry

Determines the physical dimensions of the ribs and the total slab thickness

check_deflection_limits

Requires the geometry object from calculate_slab_geometry. Evaluates if the designed slab meets serviceability requirements for deflection

verify_punching_shear_capacity

Requires the geometry object from calculate_slab_geometry. Checks if the slab-column interface can withstand the concentrated load without punching failure

Calculate the geometry for a waffle slab with a 6m span, 10 kN/m² load, 500mm rib spacing, and 30 MPa concrete.

The slab will have a rib width of 150mm, a rib height of 350mm, and a total slab thickness of 400mm.

Check if a slab with 400mm thickness and 10 kN/m² load is safe against punching shear for a 300x300mm column.

The slab is safe; the calculated shear capacity exceeds the applied shear force.

What is the reinforcement needed for a 5m span, 12 kN/m² load, and fixed supports using the previously calculated geometry?

The required reinforcement includes 450mm² of top slab steel, 320mm² of rib steel, and 150mm² of minimum shrinkage steel.

To use `calculate_slab_geometry`, you need the span in meters, the design load in kN/m², the rib spacing in mm, and the concrete strength in MPa.
