Pile Load Capacity Calculator

Pile Load Capacity Calculator MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Calculate pile axial capacity, allowable load, and settlement.

4 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides specialized geotechnical engineering tools to determine the axial capacity of piles. It calculates the ultimate capacity by summing skin friction and end bearing based on soil layers and SPT values. Users can also determine the safe working load using calculate_allowable_capacity and predict vertical displacement with estimate_settlement. The server accounts for pile geometry via get_pile_geometry_properties, groundwater depth, and installation methods like driven or bored piles.

What is the ultimate capacity of a cylindrical pile with a 500mm diameter and 15m length in these soil layers: [{"depth": 10, "spt": 20, "type": "sand"}, {"depth": 5, "spt": 35, "type": "clay"}] with groundwater at 5m, installed as driven?

The ultimate capacity for the specified cylindrical pile is 2450.5 kN, consisting of 1850.2 kN skin friction and 600.3 kN end bearing.

Calculate the allowable capacity for a pile with an ultimate capacity of 3000 kN and a factor of safety of 2.5.

The allowable capacity is 1200.0 kN.

Estimate the settlement for a 400mm diameter pile, 10m long, under a 500kN load with the provided soil profile and groundwater at 2m.

The estimated total settlement is 12.4 mm, comprising 8.2 mm of elastic settlement and 4.2 mm of consolidation settlement.

The `calculate_ultimate_capacity` tool calculates the total resistance by summing the skin friction across all soil layers and the end bearing at the pile tip, adjusted for groundwater depth.
