## Description

This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools for evaluating the stability of rock wedges formed by intersecting discontinuities in slope faces. It allows for precise calculation of the Factor of Safety (FoS) by analyzing joint orientations, slope face angles, and friction. Users can evaluate environmental impacts such as water pressure and tension cracks, or calculate the necessary reinforcement using `calculate_required_support` to reach a target safety threshold. The toolset includes `analyze_wedge_stability` for primary metrics and `get_geometry_summary` for detailed spatial properties like intersection line length and wedge volume.

## Tools

### analyze_wedge_stability
Determines the primary stability metrics for a specific wedge configuration

### calculate_required_support
Determines the necessary reinforcement needed to achieve a specific safety target

### evaluate_environmental_impact
Recalculates stability when considering water pressure, tension cracks, or additional loads

### get_geometry_summary
Provides a detailed breakdown of the spatial properties of the wedge

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the stability of a wedge with joint one at 120°/45°, joint two at 240°/40°, slope face at 0°/60°, friction angle of 30°, and weight of 500kN?
```

**Response:** 
```
The calculated Factor of Safety for this wedge configuration is 1.25, with an intersection dip of 35°.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
How does adding 50kPa of water pressure affect my current stability?
```

**Response:** 
```
The addition of 50kPa water pressure reduces the adjusted Factor of Safety from 1.25 to 0.95, indicating potential instability.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What support is required to reach a target FoS of 1.5 given my current stability?
```

**Response:** 
```
To reach a target FoS of 1.5, a required support force of 120kN is needed, using grouted anchors.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How do I calculate the stability of a specific rock wedge?**
You can use the `analyze_wedge_stability` tool by providing the dip directions and angles for both joints and the slope face, along with the friction angle and wedge weight.

**Can I account for water pressure in my stability analysis?**
Yes, use the `evaluate_environmental_impact` tool to recalculate the Factor of Safety while considering water pressure, tension cracks, and surcharge loads.

**How much support is needed to reach a target Factor of Safety?**
The `calculate_required_support` tool determines the necessary reinforcement force and recommended bolt type to achieve your specific target FoS.
