This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools to determine the design snow load for roof structures. By using get_ground_snow_load, you can retrieve base ground snow loads ($p_g$) for various US states and territories. The get_environmental_coefficients tool allows you to calculate essential multipliers including Exposure Factor ($C_e$), Thermal Factor ($C_t$), and Importance Factor ($I_s$). Finally, the calculate_roof_snow_impact tool performs the complete calculation of the roof snow load ($p_s$) and compares it against the building's dead load to assess structural risk.

What is the ground snow load for New York?

The ground snow load ($p_g$) for New York is 30 psf.

Calculate the roof snow load if the ground load is 30 psf, Ce is 0.8, Ct is 1.0, Is is 1.0, for a flat roof with a dead load of 20 psf.

The calculated roof snow load is 24.0 psf. This represents a load comparison ratio of 1.2, indicating the snow load exceeds the dead load.

What are the environmental coefficients for exposure category C, unheated roof, and standard importance?

The derived coefficients are: Exposure Factor (Ce) = 0.9, Thermal Factor (Ct) = 1.0, and Importance Factor (Is) = 1.0.

Use the `get_ground_snow_load` tool and provide the exact name of your US state or territory (e.g., 'New York').
