This MCP server provides structural engineering calculations for wood stud wall assemblies. Using the National Design Specification (NDS) for Wood Construction, it allows users to determine the safe vertical weight (axial load) and horizontal pressure (lateral load) a wall can withstand. By providing parameters such as wood species (SPF, HF, DF), wall height, and stud spacing (1-inch or 24-inch on-center), you can use tools like calculate_axial_capacity to find the allowable vertical load per linear foot or calculate_lateral_capacity to determine wind pressure resistance. The server also includes get_material_properties for retrieving species-specific strength data and validate_wall_configuration to ensure your construction parameters follow standard building practices.

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

calculate_axial_capacity

Determines how much vertical weight a single stud can safely support

calculate_lateral_capacity

Determines the maximum horizontal pressure a wall can withstand

get_material_properties

Retrieates the hardcoded strength characteristics for a specific wood species

validate_wall_configuration

Validates that the provided construction parameters meet standard building practice

What is the allowable vertical load for a 96-inch tall SPF wall with 16-inch spacing?

The allowable vertical load for an SPF wall at 96 inches height and 16-inch spacing is 850 lbs per linear foot.

Check if a wall with 24-inch spacing and 120-inch height is valid.

The configuration is valid, but note that a 120-inch height may trigger a warning for exceeding standard residential ceiling heights.

How much lateral pressure can a DF wall handle at 24-inch spacing and 96 inches height?

The allowable lateral pressure for this Douglas Fir wall is 15.5 psf.

Use the `get_material_properties` tool by providing the species name, such as 'SPF', 'HF', or 'DF'.

An AI said 'comply with GDPR' without naming a single article. It said 'we have controls' without mapping any to a regulation. It said 'low risk' without measuring severity or fine exposure. The auditor found 4 critical gaps. That is not compliance — that is compliance theater. This tool forces five audit-grade axes: specific regulation naming, control mapping, evidence documentation, gap quantification, and named accountability.
