Permeable pavement build-up per CIRIA C753 — The SuDS Manual Chapter 20. Covers the three principal UK permeable surface types (Permeable Block Paving per BS 7533-13; Porous Asphalt per SHW Cl. 938; Porous no-fines Concrete per CIRIA C753) and the three CIRIA infiltration regimes (System A full infiltration; System B partial / sides-tanked; System C no infiltration / fully tanked). Emits excavation + formation prep + tanking liner (Systems B/C) + geotextile separator + Class 3 open-graded reservoir sub-base + laying course (PBP) + permeable surface + perforated outlet pipe (Systems B/C) + disposal. Routes the reservoir sub-base, the tanking liner, and the permeable surface through three parallel classed-then-legacy discriminators (is_reservoir_sub_base, is_pavement_tanking, pavement_family) across all four standards. SMM7 PBP routes to Q25 (block pavings — different trade) while PA/PC stay at Q22 (asphalt trade) — UK trade-boundary platform principle. First launch-class assembly built entirely on existing WorkCategory vocabulary. Example params: length=12 m (0.5–500), width=5 m (0.5–100), reservoir_thickness_mm=350 mm (150–1000). Example call: {"params": {"length": 12, "width": 5, "reservoir_thickness_mm": 350}, "standard": "MMHW"}. Omitted parameters use sensible engineering defaults. Pass deliverables=["xlsx","dxf","pdf"] (any subset) to also receive one-shot download URLs in the same call: Excel BoQ (both tiers, watermarked free) plus the dimensioned DXF (CAD) and PDF drawing sheets (paid tier).

HTML page: https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-permeable-pavement ## Facts - Tool: `compute_permeable_pavement` - Server: Civilquants (`https://api.civilquants.com/mcp`) — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants.md - Homepage: https://github.com/https://api.civilquants.com/mcp - Risk category: Read (Low risk) - Registry record: grade F, identity unverified - Server auth posture: open - Server rate-limited: no - Parameters: 4 (1 required) - Recommended policy verdict: Allowed ## Parameters | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | `params` | object | yes | Input parameters for a permeable pavement assembly. Geometric defaults match a 12m × 5m residential drive with PBP surface and System A (full infiltration) — t | | `standard` | string | no | | | `output_mode` | string | no | | | `deliverables` | object | no | | Parameters from the server's own tool schema. ## Example call (MCP tools/call, JSON-RPC 2.0) ```json { "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": { "name": "compute_permeable_pavement", "arguments": { "params": {} } } } ``` ## Why compute_permeable_pavement is rated Low This tool performs parametric computation of Bills of Quantities (quantity take-off and cost estimation) for permeable pavement build-ups. It reads input parameters and returns calculated estimates with no indication of writing, executing, or destructive operations. The tool is analogous to the other 'compute_*' siblings on this server, which are all estimating/calculation tools. From the tool's own definition: "Parametric estimating engine... Emits ex[tracted/computed quantities] — the tool computes Bills of Quantities for permeable pavement assemblies per CIRIA C753/BS 7533-13/SHW Cl. 938" Risk signals: High parameter count (24 properties) ## Use case AI agents call compute_permeable_pavement to retrieve information from Civilquants without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere. ## Recommended policy (PolicyLayer) Verdict: **Allowed**. Enforced by the PolicyLayer MCP gateway (https://policylayer.com/mcp-gateway) before a call reaches Civilquants: ```json { "version": "1", "default": "deny", "tools": { "compute_permeable_pavement": {} } } ``` ## Other tools on Civilquants (55) - `compute_box_culvert` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-box-culvert.md - `compute_combined_services_trench` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-combined-services-trench.md - `compute_connection_to_existing` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-connection-to-existing.md - `compute_ditch` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-ditch.md - `compute_embankment_cross_section` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-embankment-cross-section.md - `compute_end_area_earthworks` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-end-area-earthworks.md - `compute_gabion_wall` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-gabion-wall.md - `compute_headwall_attenuation_outlet` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-headwall-attenuation-outlet.md - `compute_highway_drainage_channel` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-highway-drainage-channel.md - `compute_lighting_column` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-lighting-column.md - `compute_multi_section_assembly` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-multi-section-assembly.md - `compute_pad_foundation` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-pad-foundation.md - `compute_parapet` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-parapet.md - `compute_pipe_bedding` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-pipe-bedding.md - `compute_reinforced_soil_wall` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-reinforced-soil-wall.md - `compute_road_marking` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-road-marking.md - `compute_single_service_run` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-single-service-run.md - `compute_soakaway` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-soakaway.md - `compute_soil_nailed_slope` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-soil-nailed-slope.md - `compute_traffic_sign` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-traffic-sign.md - `compute_utility_chamber` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-utility-chamber.md - `compute_utility_kiosk_base` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-utility-kiosk-base.md - `recompute_project` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/recompute-project.md - `render_skill_report` — Execute — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/render-skill-report.md - `compute_attenuation_tank` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-attenuation-tank.md - `compute_bored_pile_wall` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-bored-pile-wall.md - `compute_cantilever_wall` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-cantilever-wall.md - `compute_carrier_pipe_run` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-carrier-pipe-run.md - `compute_catchpit` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-catchpit.md - `compute_edge_drain` — Read — https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants/compute-edge-drain.md - …and 25 more: https://policylayer.com/tools/com-civilquants-civilquants.md ## For agents This record is a snapshot.
