## Description

This MCP server provides specialized calculation tools for concrete construction professionals. It determines specific defect tolerances, estimates the volume of repair materials needed, and assesses formwork preparation requirements. Use `get_finish_requirements` to define target standards, `calculate_defect_tolerance` for area-based deviations, `estimate_repair_volume` for material planning, and `assess_formwork_readiness` to ensure substrate compatibility.

## Tools

### assess_formwork_readiness
Evaluates the necessary preparation steps based on materials and mix

### calculate_defect_tolerance
Calculates the specific allowable deviation for a given surface area and quality context

### estimate_repair_volume
Provides an estimate of the material required to fix surface imperfections

### get_finish_requirements
Determines the specific tolerances and preparation needs for a target finish

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What are the requirements for an ARCHITECTURAL finish with a HIGH quality level?
```

**Response:** 
```
For an ARCHITECTURAL finish at a HIGH quality level, the required defect tolerance is 2.0mm and the necessary preparation includes specialized release agent application.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How much repair material do I need for 50 square meters if the tolerance is 1.5mm and quality is STANDARD?
```

**Response:** 
```
You will need approximately 12.5 litres of repair material for a 50 square meter area with a 1.5mm tolerance.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is my TIMBER formwork ready for a standard concrete mix using a water curing method?
```

**Response:** 
```
The formwork preparation complexity score is 4/10. Required steps include cleaning the timber surface and applying a compatible oil-based release agent.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I determine the allowed deviation for my project?**
You can use the `calculate_defect_tolerance` tool by providing the finish type, quality level, and the total surface area in square meters.

**Can this tool help with material procurement?**
Yes, the `estimate_repair_volume` tool provides a calculated estimate of the liters of material required to correct surface imperfections.

**Does it check if my formwork is ready?**
Yes, the `assess_formwork_readiness` tool evaluates preparation steps based on your formwork material, concrete mix, and curing method.
