Works with modern AI clients that support MCP, including ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, and more.
Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.
No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.
Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.
Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.
One switch stops every agent. Instantly.
One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.
Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.
Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.
Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.
Curated set · 4 capabilities

01-04
4 capabilities in this set.
Part of 4 available through Concrete Punching Shear.
- 01
Evaluate capacity
Use this to compare applied shear stress against the concrete's capacity. It tells you immediately if the slab meets ACI standards or requires reinforcement.
- 02
Account for openings
This capability adjusts the critical perimeter and stress calculations. It ensures slab penetrations are factored into the final shear analysis.
- 03
Design stud rails
This capability provides reinforcement requirements when a slab fails the punching shear check. It calculates the necessary stud rail design to ensure stability.
- 04
Calculate shear stress
This capability finds the shear stress acting on the slab at the critical section. It determines the critical perimeter based on your input parameters.
Real work
What teams actually run
Slab Capacity Verification
Check if a new slab design can support a specific column load without failing punching shear.
Reinforcement Design
Determine the exact number and spacing of studs needed when a slab fails the initial capacity check.
Penetration Analysis
Adjust shear calculations to account for openings or penetrations in the concrete slab.
Rapid Design Iteration
Quickly test different slab thicknesses or column sizes to find the most efficient design.
One connector, every AI
Concrete Punching Shear works with the most popular AI clients.
These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Le ChatBuilding your own app? The connector is yours to use.
You don't need a client to put Concrete Punching Shear to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Preview access · not provider authentication
The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Concrete Punching Shear, so you can see the experience inside your AI.
It does not authenticate your account with Concrete Punching Shear. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for
Built for the work Concrete Punching Shear owners hand off.
Structural engineers and designers use this MCP to automate repetitive slab verification tasks. You can hand off raw load and dimension data to your agent to get instant capacity reports.
- 01
Structural Engineer
Uses the capability to verify slab integrity and design reinforcement for heavy loads.
- 02
Civil Engineer
Employs the MCP to check if concrete slabs meet ACI safety standards.
- 03
Design Technician
Uses the agent to quickly calculate stud rail spacing and quantities.
FAQ
Questions Concrete Punching Shear owners ask.
- 01
What standards does this MCP follow?
The MCP uses ACI standards to evaluate concrete capacity and punching shear.
- 02
Can I use this with Claude or Cursor?
Yes, you can connect this MCP to any compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.
- 03
How does it handle slab openings?
The capability includes a specific function to adjust the critical perimeter and stress calculations for slab penetrations.
- 04
What happens if the slab fails the shear check?
The agent can use the design capability to provide the necessary stud rail reinforcement requirements.
- 05
Do I need to host the MCP myself?
No, Vinkius hosts and manages the MCP for you. You just connect your client and start working.
- 06
How do I check if my slab needs reinforcement?
Run calculate_shear_stress to get the stress, then use evaluate_capacity. If the capacity utilization is greater than 1.0, the slab requires reinforcement.
- 07
Can this capability account for slab openings?
Yes, use the account_for_openings capability to adjust the critical perimeter and stress factors based on the dimensions and location of the opening.
- 08
What standards does this follow?
The calculations follow ACI punching shear provisions for concrete slab design.
