## Description

This MCP server provides essential engineering calculations for designing marine terminal infrastructure. It allows AI agents to determine necessary docking spaces using `get_berth_capacity`, calculate physical dimensions with `calculate_jetty_dimensions`, verify equipment reach via `calculate_loading_reach`, and ensure site compliance through `validate_site_feasibility`. It is designed to assist maritime engineers in planning vessel access, maneuvering areas, and jetty structures based on vessel types and cargo throughput.

## Tools

### calculate_jetty_dimensions
Calculates the necessary physical length of the jetty and the required maneuvering space

### calculate_loading_reach
Determines if the proposed loading equipment can successfully reach the vessel's connection points

### get_berth_capacity
Determines how many docking spaces are required to meet specific cargo demands

### validate_site_feasibility
Checks if the proposed terminal layout fits within the physical constraints of the site

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
How many berths do I need for a Panamax vessel with an annual throughput of 5,000,000 tons and a 48-hour turnaround time?
```

**Response:** 
```
To handle 5,000,000 tons of Panamax cargo with a 48-hour turnaround, you will require 4 berths.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the required jetty length for 3 Supramax berths with a 10-meter safety margin?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total required jetty length for 3 Supramax berths with a 10-meter safety margin is 450 meters.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Will a Marine Loading Arm reach a VLCC if the jetty width is 15 meters?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, the Marine Loading Arm has an effective working range that successfully reaches the VLCC connection points at a jetty width of 15 meters.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate the number of berths needed?**
You can use the `get_berth_capacity` tool by providing the vessel type, annual throughput, and average turnaround time.

**Can I check if my jetty is long enough for a specific ship?**
Yes, use `calculate_jetty_dimensions` to determine the required length and maneuvering area for your chosen vessel type.

**How do I verify if the terminal fits the site constraints?**
Use the `validate_site_feasibility` tool to check if your calculated jetty length and maneuvering area comply with your site's physical boundaries.
