## Description

This MCP server provides specialized engineering tools to calculate wind loads on structures. It implements ASCE 7 provisions to determine design wind pressure, total wind force, and vertical force distribution. Engineers can use `calculate_design_pressure` to find pressure at specific surfaces, `calculate_total_wind_force` for cumulative loads, and `get_force_distribution` to analyze how pressure varies with height. Additionally, `evaluate_structural_risk` helps assess if a structure's capacity is sufficient for the calculated loads, accounting for terrain, topography, and shielding.

## Tools

### calculate_design_pressure
Determines the wind pressure (kPa) exerted on a specific surface of the building

### calculate_total_wind_force
Calculates the total resultant force (kN) acting on the entire structure

### evaluate_structural_risk
Assesses if the calculated wind loads are within safe thresholds for a specific building type

### get_force_distribution
Provides a vertical profile of how wind force is distributed across the height of the building

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the design wind pressure for a 20m building with 30m/s wind speed in terrain category 2 and an importance factor of 1.0.
```

**Response:** 
```
The design wind pressure for the specified parameters is 1.45 kPa.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
What is the total wind force for a structure with a design pressure of 2.0 kPa and a projected area of 50 square meters, using a directionality factor of 0.85?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total wind force is 85.0 kN.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a structure safe if the total wind force is 500 kN and its capacity is 450 kN with an importance factor of 1.0?
```

**Response:** 
```
No, the structure is not safe. The utilization ratio is 1.11, which exceeds the capacity.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What standards does this tool follow?**
The calculations are based on ASCE 7 wind load provisions.

**How can I check if my building is safe?**
You can use the `evaluate_structural_risk` tool by providing the total force and the structure's design capacity.

**Does it account for terrain and topography?**
Yes, the `calculate_design_pressure` tool includes parameters for terrain category, topography factors, and shielding.
