Tekla Structures is a 3D building information modeling software able to model structures that incorporate different kinds of building materials, including steel, concrete, timber and glass.[1][2][3][4][5][6] Tekla allows structural drafters and engineers to design a building structure and its components using 3D modeling, generate 2D drawings and access building information.[2][3][5] Tekla Structures was formerly known as Xsteel (X as in X Window System, the foundation of the Unix GUI).[7]

Features

Tekla Structures is used in the construction industry for steel and concrete detailing, precast and cast in-situ. The software enables users to create and manage 3D structural models in concrete or steel, and guides them through the process from concept to fabrication.[8] The process of shop drawing creation is automated. It is available in different configurations and localized environments.[9]

Tekla Structures is known to support large models with multiple simultaneous users, but is regarded as relatively expensive, complex to learn and fully utilize.[1] It competes in the BIM market with AutoCAD, Autodesk Revit, DProfiler and Digital Project, Lucas Bridge, PERICad and others.[1][2] Tekla Structures is Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) compliant.[5]

Modeling scopes within Tekla Structures includes Structural Steel, Cast-in-Place (CIP), Concrete, Reinforcing Bar, Miscellaneous Steel and Light Gauge Drywall Framing.[3] The transition of Xsteel to Tekla Structures in 2004 added significant more functionality and interoperability.[6] It is often used in conjunction with Autodesk Revit, where structural framing is designed in Tekla and exported to Revit using the IFC or DWG/DXF formats.[10]

Applications

Engineers have used Tekla Structures to model stadiums, offshore structures, pipe rack structures, plants, factories, residential buildings, bridges and skyscrapers.[1][2] Tekla Structures was used in the construction design for various projects around the world, including:[11][12]

Tekla Structures was used extensively for the steel design of Capital Gate at Abu Dhabi, UAE.[4] Files exported from Tekla facilitated faster steel fabrication.[4] One of the architects, Jeff Schofield, stated that "it was the right time in history and we had the right technology to make this happen".[4]

The Manitoba Hydro Spillway Replacement was designed using Tekla Structures to "successfully model and co-ordinate its design", a project that won the TEKLA 2012 North American BIM Award for "Best Concrete Project".[19] It was the "first hydroelectric project that has seen steel, concrete, and rebar fully detailed using Tekla Structures".[20]
