This MCP server provides essential engineering tools for designing building expansion joints. It allows users to calculate thermal expansion/contraction using calculate_thermal_movement, determine seismic displacement with calculate_seismic_displacement, and generate complete physical design parameters via design_joint_specification. Engineers can also use get_sealant_recommendation to identify the correct material for specific movement capacities. The tool accounts for building irregularities and seismic zones to ensure structural integrity.

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

calculate_seismic_displacement

Calculates the additional displacement required for joints located in seismic zones

calculate_thermal_movement

Determines the movement caused specifically by temperature fluctuations

design_joint_specification

Aggregates thermal and seismic data to provide the final physical design parameters for the joint

get_sealant_recommendation

Provides a detailed description of the recommended sealant material for a specific movement capacity

Calculate the thermal movement for a 100m building with a temperature range from -10°C to 40°C.

The thermal movement for a 100m building with a temperature delta of 50°C is 15.0 mm.

What is the recommended sealant for a joint that needs to withstand 25mm of movement?

For a 25mm movement capacity, a Standard Movement Tier sealant such as Polyurethane is recommended.

Design a joint for a 50m building in a High seismic zone with 10mm of thermal movement and an irregular shape.

The final design requires a total movement of 45.0 mm, a required gap of 52.5 mm, a High Performance Tier sealant, and a cover plate width of 60.0 mm.

The `calculate_seismic_displacement` tool calculates additional movement based on the designated seismic zone classification and the building length.
