What design standards does this tool follow?

The tool follows AISC methodologies for composite steel-concrete beam design.

Can I design for partial composite action?

Yes, you can use `calculate_shear_studs` with a target degree of composite between 0 and 1 to design for partial action.

How do I check if my beam is safe?

You can use the `validate_design_compliance` tool to check if your applied moment and deflection are within AISC limits.

This MCP server provides structural engineering tools for designing composite steel-concrete beams according to AISC standards. It allows engineers to calculate the get_moment_capacity for a specific steel section and concrete slab combination, determine the necessary calculate_shear_studs requirements for desired composite action, and compute get_beam_deflection under applied loads. Finally, use validate_design_compliance to ensure the design meets serviceability and strength limits.
