How do I calculate the safe working load?

You can use the `get_safe_working_load` tool by providing the scaffold type, height, bay length, and leg load capacity.

Can this tool check if my scaffold is stable?

Yes, the `check_stability_limits` tool evaluates the safety factor and potential failure modes like overturning.

What scaffold types are supported?

The server supports Supported, Suspended, and Mobile scaffold types.

More Details Connect to Claude

This MCP server provides structural engineering calculations for scaffolding configurations. It allows AI agents to determine the maximum safe load per square meter using get_safe_working_load, identify necessary diagonal patterns with calculate_bracing_requirements, find maximum tie spacing via determine_tie_spacing, and evaluate overturning risks with check_stability_limits.
