Tekla Structures is BIM software used in building and construction industries to create, open and combine data-rich and highly constructible 3D structural models especially for large and complex structures, to navigate around them in real-time, and to review the model using tools included in the software, e.g. 4D scheduling visualization. Tekla Structures encompasses specialized solutions for structural design/engineering, steel detailing and fabrication, precast concrete detailing and manufacturing and construction management. Finland-based developer Tekla Corporation created Tekla Structures. Tekla is a Microsoft Registered Partner.
Tekla models can be simultaneously shared between team members in different geographic locations. The structure of a building can be modeled using any building material, such as concrete, steel, precast concrete, and timber. Tekla Structures enables choosing a localized environment to model in, including the region-specific settings and information that define, for example, which profiles, material names, and templates can be used in which area. Tekla works in a multi-vendor environment together with other construction disciplines to provide a virtual single model where all building information can be seen as if in one integrated model.
