Simulate staged excavation and calculate structural demands for diaphragm walls.

4 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools for designing diaphragm walls in deep excavations. It simulates the staged excavation process to calculate critical structural responses, including wall moment and shear diagrams. Engineers can use analyze_wall_stability to determine maximum forces, calculate_strut_loads to find axial compressive loads on support systems, and determine_embedment_requirement to ensure stability against sliding or kicking out. It also allows querying specific soil properties at any depth using get_soil_properties_at_depth.

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

calculate_strut_loads

Determines the compressive forces acting on each installed strut

determine_embedment_requirement

Calculates the minimum depth the wall must be embedded below the excavation base to ensure stability

get_soil_properties_at_depth

Retrieves the specific physical properties of the soil at a requested vertical coordinate

analyze_wall_stability

Calculates the primary structural responses of the wall throughout the excavation process

Calculate the stability of a 15m excavation with a 0.8m thick wall and a water table at 3m.

The analysis shows a maximum bending moment of 450 kNm/m and a maximum shear force of 120 kN/m for the specified excavation depth and soil profile.

What are the forces on struts installed at 5m and 10m for this excavation?

The strut at 5m is experiencing a compressive force of 250 kN, and the strut at 10m is experiencing 310 kN.

How deep must the wall be embedded for a 20m excavation?

The minimum required embedment depth to ensure stability is 6.5 meters.

The tool accounts for hydrostatic pressure by using the provided groundwater level to calculate the additional lateral pressure acting on the wall and the soil.
