## Description

This MCP server provides structural engineering tools to design reinforced concrete one-way slabs. It calculates the required slab thickness to satisfy deflection limits, determines the main reinforcement needed to resist bending moments, and calculates temperature reinforcement to control thermal cracking. You can also use `verify_serviceability` to perform a final validation of the design against structural limits. It supports various support conditions including simply supported, continuous, and cantilever spans.

## Tools

### calculate_slab_thickness
Determines the minimum required thickness of the slab to satisfy structural integrity and deflection limits

### verify_serviceability
Performs a final validation of the design against deflection and crack control limits

### calculate_main_reinforcement
Calculates the amount of primary steel required to resist bending moments

### calculate_temperature_reinforcement
Calculates the secondary steel required to control cracking from thermal effects

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the required thickness for a 5m span slab with a 10 kN/m² load, 30 MPa concrete, and 500 MPa steel, assuming it is simply supported.
```

**Response:** 
```
The required slab thickness is 125 mm, and the deflection check is successful.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much main reinforcement is needed for a 4m span, 150mm thick slab with 12 kN/m² load, 30 MPa concrete, and 500 MPa steel on a continuous support?
```

**Response:** 
```
The required main reinforcement area is 450 mm² per meter, using 12mm diameter bars spaced at 250mm.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate temperature reinforcement for a 150mm thick slab with 500 MPa steel.
```

**Response:** 
```
The required temperature reinforcement is 220 mm² per meter, using 10mm diameter bars spaced at 360mm.
```
