## Description

This MCP server provides specialized tools for structural health monitoring. It allows AI agents to calculate the instantaneous corrosion rate using `calculate_corrosion_rate`, predict when physical damage will occur with `predict_spalling_time`, and estimate the total remaining service life using `estimate_remaining_service_life`. It also evaluates the effectiveness of protective measures via `evaluate_protection_efficiency` based on concrete resistivity, chloride content, and material quality.

## Tools

### predict_spalling_time
Estimates the time elapsed from the start of corrosion until physical damage (spalling) occurs

### calculate_corrosion_rate
Determines the instantaneous corrosion rate of the reinforcement based on environmental and material conditions

### estimate_remaining_service_life
Calculates the remaining useful life of the structure before it reaches a critical structural limit

### evaluate_protection_efficiency
Assesses how effectively current coatings and concrete quality are mitigating corrosion risk

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the estimated corrosion rate for concrete with 5.0 Ωm resistivity, 2% chloride content, 25°C temperature, 60% humidity, and Standard quality?
```

**Response:** 
```
The estimated corrosion rate is 0.045 mm/year, which is classified as a moderate rate.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How many years until spalling occurs if the corrosion rate is 0.05 mm/year and the cover depth is 40 mm with Porous concrete?
```

**Response:** 
```
The predicted time until spalling occurs is 12.5 years, representing an elevated risk level.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the remaining service life for a 10-year-old structure with a 0.03 mm/year corrosion rate, 20mm initial steel section, and a 15% critical loss threshold.
```

**Response:** 
```
The remaining service life is 33.3 years, with a total expected life of 43.3 years. The current structural integrity is rated as fair.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the tool calculate the corrosion rate?**
The `calculate_corrosion_rate` tool uses concrete resistivity, chloride content, temperature, humidity, and concrete quality to determine the electrochemical degradation speed.

**Can I predict when concrete will start to chip or spall?**
Yes, by using `predict_spalling_time`, you can estimate the years remaining until rust expansion causes physical spalling based on the corrosion rate and cover depth.

**What factors influence the remaining service life?**
The `estimate_remaining_service_life` tool considers the current corrosion rate, the original steel section size, the critical loss threshold, and the current age of the structure.
