"Tekla Structures is the leading 3D modeling system in the world, with users in more than 80 countries experiencing tremendous gains in productivity, accuracy and efficiency. The advantages over other detailing systems and methods include superior technology, ease of use, and flexibility”
On Tekla, I create a detailed 3D model of your steel structure – whether it is a warehouse or a shed. Working in 3D makes it extremely accurate in which problem areas are easier to identify and resolve, It also creates a better understanding of the project. The General Arrangment drawings that Tekla creates illustrates neatly where each assembly component fits within your structure, including the requirements for installing them and all the associated field work such as installing bolts, chemical anchors and welding spots.
Tekla does the following:
- Create conceptual models to generate accurate quantities for estimation and a visual presentation in a professional manner for your clients.
- On completion of the 3D model on Tekla it will contain everything needed for fabrication and construction, including bolt connections and welds
- Generate fabrication and erection drawings
- Create bills of materials, schedules and other reports automatically.
- Interface with all the leading software for analysis & design, plant design and MEP with standards and proprietary formats including IFC, DXF, DWG and DGN.
- 3D visualizations makes communication with the client straight forward, and enable flexible response to changes, in the office and on site.
- Changes in the model are automatically updated to all drawing

* Tekla Structures offers a free, fully functional model review solution called Tekla BIM sight. With Tekla BIM Sight I am able to collaborate with clients through a 3D model, sharing various types of information. This could be used for numerous purposes, from approving models, checking for conflicts and clashes, to even erection of the actual model.
