Retaining Wall Stability Analyzer

Retaining Wall Stability Analyzer MCP Connector for Claude

A+

Evaluates structural integrity of retaining walls against overturning, sliding, and bearing failure.

4 tools Official Updated Oct 1, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools to assess the stability of retaining walls. It uses Rankine and Coulomb earth pressure theories to calculate safety margins for critical failure modes. Engineers can use analyze_overturning_stability to check for tipping risks, analyze_sliding_stability to evaluate horizontal movement, and analyze_bearing_capacity to ensure the foundation soil can support the structure. Additionally, calculate_hydrostatic_impact accounts for water pressure accumulation in the backfill.

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

analyze_bearing_capacity

Checks if the foundation soil can support the vertical weight of the wall without failing

analyze_overturning_stability

Determines if the wall is at risk of tipping over due to lateral forces

analyze_sliding_stability

Determines if the wall is at risk of being pushed horizontally along the ground

calculate_hydrostatic_impact

Evaluates how much additional lateral pressure is generated by water accumulation in the backfill

Check the overturning stability for a wall 5m high, 3m wide, with a 30 degree soil friction angle and 10 kN/m2 surcharge.

The factor of safety against overturning is 1.85, which meets the standard safety requirement.

Calculate the hydrostatic force if there is 2m of water in a 5m tall wall with water unit weight of 9.81 kN/m3.

The total hydrostatic force is 19.62 kN/m and the pressure at the base is 19.62 kN/m2.

Will a wall with a 4m height and 2m base width slide if the soil friction angle is 25 degrees and surcharge is 5 kN/m2?

The factor of safety against sliding is 1.2, which is below the typical engineering requirement of 1.5.

Use the `analyze_overturning_stability` tool. Provide the wall height, base width, soil friction angle, and surcharge to receive the factor of safety against overturning.
