About FERS: structural finite-element analysis MCP Server

Structural finite-element analysis for engineers and AI agents: beams, 3D frames, trusses and plates, with deflections, forces, reactions, buckling, frequencies and Eurocode 3 steel checks with a hand-calc trace, validated against closed-form solutions. The hosted server builds and checks models and returns a link that solves them in your browser. Free for non-commercial use up to 100 members.

Overview

FERS: structural finite-element analysis for AI agents

A finite-element solver your agent can call: beams, 2D and 3D frames, trusses and plates, with deflections, internal forces, reactions, natural frequencies, linear buckling (alpha_cr), seismic response and EN 1993-1-1 (Eurocode 3) steel member checks with a clause-by-clause hand-calc trace. The engine is validated against closed-form solutions: the model interprets, the solver calculates.

This listing: the hosted server

  • Endpoint: https://ferscloud.com/api/mcp (streamable HTTP)
  • Sign-in: OAuth with a free FERS Cloud account, or an X-API-Key header
  • It builds and validates models. solve_model, run_unity_checks and check_beam return a link that solves the model in your browser (public, valid for 24 hours); the hosted server runs no solver itself.

The same tools, solved on your own machine; the Free tier needs no account or key. For Claude Desktop, double-click fers-mcp.mcpb from the release.

Tools (a selection)

ToolWhat it does
check_beamEN 1993-1-1 steel member check: bending, shear, N+M, lateral-torsional buckling
create_beam, create_frame, build_modelSolver-ready models from a span and section, a portal frame, or a node and member list
solve_modelDisplacements, internal forces and reactions
set_analysisSecond-order, modal, buckling or seismic analysis
run_unity_checksEurocode unity checks with an HTML hand-calc report
list_sectionsNamed European, UK and US steel sections
get_schemaThe model schema, so the agent does not guess field names

Example prompt

Check an IPE 400 in S275, 7.5 m simply supported span, 12 kN/m distributed load, to EN 1993-1-1 with FERS.

Licence

PolyForm Strict 1.0.0: free for non-commercial use (models up to 100 members); commercial use needs a paid FERS Cloud plan (Pro, up to 10,000 members).

Frequently asked questions

1

What is the FERS: structural finite-element analysis remote MCP server?

The FERS: structural finite-element analysis remote MCP server is a hosted Model Context Protocol endpoint at https://ferscloud.com/api/mcp, so AI assistants can connect to it without installing or running anything locally.

2

How do I connect to the FERS: structural finite-element analysis MCP server?

Add the endpoint https://ferscloud.com/api/mcp to any MCP-compatible client such as Claude Code, Cursor, or VS Code. The setup snippets on this page configure each client in one step.

3

Does the FERS: structural finite-element analysis MCP server require authentication?

Yes. FERS: structural finite-element analysis uses OAuth: the first time you connect, your MCP client opens a browser window to sign in and authorize access, then reuses the credentials for future sessions.

4

Which transport does the FERS: structural finite-element analysis MCP server use?

FERS: structural finite-element analysis exposes a Streamable HTTP endpoint, the transport used by remote MCP servers and supported by all major MCP clients.
