Benefits of Using Tekla Structures For Structural Steel Detailing

Tekla Structures is revolutionary software catering to the wide variety of needs of steel detailers and structural engineers in the growing steel building and construction industry. Tekla Structures software comes with powerful tools to develop a detailed 3D model that can further be utilized for producing steel shop and erection drawings and reports automatically with almost 100% accuracy.

Tekla provides an option to share the 3D model across all stakeholders such as steel detailers, building owner and structural engineer facilitating simultaneous collaboration on the unique, regularly updated 3D model at every stage of the construction lifecycle. Various disciplines can generate and share a model and complete or verify drawings with ease and efficiency.

Major benefits of Tekla Structures software are discussed below.

Get Precision and incisive detailing: Tekla Structures offers steel detailing in a 3D environment making sure error-free collaboration during the fabrication and erection stages. Tekla 3D detailed model characterizes the 'as-built' state of the structure in any given condition - if the structure stands well on computer screen, then it will fit on the construction site as well.

The software comes with a comprehensive library of structural steel components right from clip angles, end plates and braces to staircases and handrails allowing detailer to effortlessly model and store company-specific settings for future use.

Obtain output automatically: The steel fabricator can generate required shop drawings and reports automatically from the precisely detailed 3D model. Since drawings are correlated to the 3D model, any modifications in the model get automatically reflected in the output as well.

Efficient and effort-less management: Tekla cleverly handles adjustments made to the structure. Ongoing corrections made to the model and drawings no longer result in huge delays or costly errors. You get - Always up-to-date drawings - Related components respond to a change & are updated automatically - Automatic clash detection
