Steel Tools MCP server

Connect Steel Tools and your agent gets 14 tools, among them steel_bolt_pretension, steel_coating_area, steel_connection_reference. It answers at https://www.structupath.ai/api/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 10 of 10 times since 4 September 2026; the last check, on 17 October 2026, succeeded.

The 14 tools Steel Tools offers

ToolWhat it does
steel_bolt_pretensionRCSC minimum pretension for A325/A490 structural bolts by diameter, with the turn-of-the-nut rotation when a bolt length is given. Published nominal values for estimating and orientation, not design guidance.
Inputs: dia, length_in
steel_coating_areaSurface area to coat for an AISC shape: ft² per foot from the cross-section perimeter, piece/lot area with length and qty, optional interior faces for galvanized tubes and gallons at a supplied coverage rate. Published nominal values for es
Inputs: designation, length_ft, qty, include_inside_faces, coverage_sqft_per_gal
steel_connection_referenceDescribe a structural steel connection type (behaviour, use, what goes wrong) by name, alias or slug — or look up a structural bolt grade (A325, A490, A307). Published nominal values for estimating and orientation, not design guidance.
Inputs: name_or_slug
steel_gauge_thicknessLook up sheet steel gauge thickness (gauges 3-28) in inches and mm with lb/ft², for plain, galvanized or stainless series. Published nominal values for estimating and orientation, not design guidance.
Inputs: gauge, material
steel_mtr_checkScreen a mill cert's yield and tensile against the specified limits for A992, A572 Gr. 50 or A36 — a screening aid, not acceptance. Published nominal values for estimating and orientation, not design guidance.
Inputs: grade, yield_ksi, tensile_ksi
steel_ncr_generateGenerate a formal Nonconformance Report PDF: identification, description, the violated requirement, containment, root cause (prose or 5-Whys chain), disposition (accept-as-is/repair/rework/reject) with actions, and blank quality-review and
Inputs: company_name, company_location, ncr_number, date, project_name, project_number
steel_pdf_markupAdd real Bluebeam-compatible annotation objects to a drawing PDF — counts, length/area measurements with live scales, RFI clouds, callouts — from a markups JSON you supply plus placement coordinates. Pass the PDF as an https URL or small ba
Inputs: pdf_url, pdf_base64, markups, scale, page_scales, coordinate_space
steel_pipe_scheduleSteel pipe dimensions by NPS and schedule: OD, wall, inside diameter and lb/ft for schedules 5, 10, 40/STD, 80/XS, 160 and XXS. Omit the schedule to list them all. Published nominal values for estimating and orientation, not design guidance
Inputs: nps, schedule
steel_plate_weightCompute carbon steel plate weight from thickness (decimal or fraction) and width/length in inches, with optional material cost via price_per_lb. Published nominal values for estimating and orientation, not design guidance.
Inputs: thickness_in, width_in, length_in, price_per_lb
steel_rfi_generateGenerate a formal Request for Information PDF from structured fields — header, meta grid, subject, description, proposed solution, attachments, and a blank response block for the design team. You do the judgement (one issue per RFI, exact d
Inputs: company_name, company_location, rfi_number, date, project_name, project_number
steel_rfq_generateGenerate a vendor-ready Request for Quotation (.xlsx) from structured takeoff line items — grouped by material, with vendor pricing columns, totals and standard terms. You pass parsed line items and a company name; returns a download link t
Inputs: company_name, company_location, project_name, project_location, date_issued, line_items
steel_section_weightWeight of round bar, square bar, flat bar or round tube from dimensions in inches — lb/ft and optional piece weight, in carbon, stainless or aluminum. For AISC designations use steel_shape_weight; for plate use steel_plate_weight. Published
Inputs: section, dim1_in, dim2_in, length_ft, material
steel_shape_weightLook up an AISC shape designation (W, C, MC, L, HSS, PIPE) for lb/ft, depth and area, with optional piece weight. 14th-Edition-era data. Published nominal values for estimating and orientation, not design guidance.
Inputs: designation, length_ft, qty
steel_takeoff_weightRoll a member list (AISC designation, length in feet, piece count — up to 500 lines) into a bill-of-steel ledger: weight per line, total pounds and tons, piece and lineal-foot counts. Net weight only; unmatched designations are listed, not
