# Accessibility Checker MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect > Accessibility Checker MCP. Verify building designs against ADA and European accessibility standards. Get instant reports on corridor widths, ramp slopes, doorway clearances, and restroom layouts to ensure your construction projects meet legal requirements and stay safe for everyone. ## Overview - **Category:** construction - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_vAK4Tj4X6MRFVVEtworit1yfP7SMpfvjpPA269Pb/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** ada, universal-design, building-code, ramps, corridor ## Description Accessibility Checker lets you verify building designs against universal accessibility standards without doing the math yourself. You can use it to ensure every hallway, ramp, and restroom in a project meets the legal requirements for people with reduced mobility. By connecting this Connector through the Vinkius catalog, you give your AI client the ability to audit architectural elements as you work. You can ask it to check if a specific corridor maintains a minimum width or if a ramp slope is too steep. It handles the technical details, like calculating landing requirements or maneuvering space, and provides a clear list of violations. This helps you catch errors in the design phase, so you don't have to deal with expensive rework or failed inspections once construction begins. ## Tools ### check_corridor_and_passage Checks if hallways meet minimum width requirements for universal access. It returns compliance status and violation details. ### check_ramp_compliance Calculates ramp slopes and confirms the presence of required resting landings. It checks against the 33% maximum standard. ### check_bathroom_spaciousness Confirms that bathrooms have enough functional floor area for maneuvering. It verifies that restrooms provide enough functional floor area. ### check_doorway Verifies that door openings provide enough clearance for mobility aids. It measures the actual clear opening width. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` I'm looking at a new clinic design. Hallway P-MAIN is 1.05m wide. Is that okay for a wheelchair? ``` **Response:** ``` The hallway P-MAIN is compliant. It meets the minimum clear width required for universal access. ``` **Prompt:** ``` We have a ramp with a 1.8m drop over a 15m run. Does it need landings? ``` **Response:** ``` The slope for your 1.8m drop over 15m is compliant. The tool also confirms that required resting landings are in place at the transition points. ``` **Prompt:** ``` Check the restroom in Room B-401. It's 2.5 square meters with grab bars. Is that enough space? ``` **Response:** ``` The restroom in Room B-401 provides 2.5 square meters of functional floor area. This is adequate for maneuvering space, and the grab bars meet the safety requirements. ``` ## Capabilities ### Verify hallway widths Check if corridors meet the minimum clear width for universal access. ### Calculate ramp slopes Determine if a ramp section meets maximum slope and landing requirements. ### Measure doorway clearances Verify that door openings provide enough clearance for mobility aids. ### Assess restroom floor area Confirm that bathrooms provide enough functional floor area for maneuvering. ### Generate compliance reports Receive a detailed list of dimension gaps and structural violations. ## Use Cases ### Checking a clinic hallway An architect wants to check a clinic layout. They ask their agent to verify if hallway 'P-MAIN' at 1.05m wide meets the minimum width. The agent uses check_corridor_and_passage to confirm it is compliant. ### Planning a ramp for a 1.8m drop A contractor is planning a ramp for a 1.8m drop. They ask the agent to check the slope and landing requirements for a 15m run. The agent uses check_ramp_compliance to provide the results. ### Auditing a school restroom A facility manager is auditing a school restroom. They ask the agent to check if Room 'B-401' has enough maneuvering space. The agent uses check_bathroom_spaciousness to confirm the 2.5 sq meter area is adequate. ### Verifying a main entrance door A designer needs to check a main entrance. They ask the agent to verify the 0.9m clear opening of a sliding door. The agent uses check_doorway to confirm it meets standards. ## Benefits - Catch dimension errors early in the design phase by using check_corridor_and_passage to verify hallway widths. - Avoid expensive construction rework by using check_ramp_compliance to ensure correct slopes and landings. - Guarantee safe passage in public spaces by using check_doorway to confirm clear opening widths. - Ensure restrooms are actually usable for everyone by checking maneuvering space with check_bathroom_spaciousness. - Get immediate, detailed reports on specific violations rather than vague compliance summaries. ## How It Works The bottom line is you get a clear list of accessibility violations before a single brick is laid. 1. Connect the Accessibility Checker MCP to your AI client via Vinkius. 2. Input the dimensions or room IDs from your architectural plans. 3. Receive a detailed report on compliant areas and specific violations. ## Frequently Asked Questions **Can Accessibility Checker help with ADA compliance?** Yes. It checks your building dimensions against standard requirements like ADA to ensure hallways, ramps, and restrooms are accessible. **Does Accessibility Checker work for European building codes?** Yes. It handles both USA and European accessibility standards for various architectural elements. **How does Accessibility Checker find errors in my floor plan?** You provide the dimensions or room IDs from your plans, and the Connector checks them against specific width, slope, and area requirements. **Can I use Accessibility Checker to check restrooms?** Yes. It specifically checks if a bathroom has enough floor area for maneuvering, not just the door size. **Does Accessibility Checker check ramp slopes?** Yes. It calculates the slope of ramps and verifies that you have included the necessary resting landings at transition points. **How do I get a report from Accessibility Checker?** Your AI client will provide a summary of which elements are compliant and a detailed list of any violations found in your data. **What is the minimum width required for a main corridor?** The system uses the `check_corridor_and_passage` tool to verify this. It checks the measured clear width against mandatory standards, ensuring safe passage for mobility aids. **Does it check if ramps are steep enough?** The `check_ramp_compliance` tool handles slope and landings. It calculates the ratio to ensure it does not exceed the maximum permitted standard (e.g., 8.33%) and verifies landing presence. **Are doorways checked for proper clearance?** Yes, the `check_doorway` tool specifically measures the unobstructed clear opening width. This guarantees that passage is possible regardless of the door's hardware or type.
