For over a decade, 3D modeling has been a powerful tool for detailers, designers and contractors within the steel construction sector. Tekla solutions have always been at the forefront of this revolutionary period, and the new Tekla Structures ensures that this trend will continue.

Evolved from Tekla Xsteel, Tekla Structures is the leading 3D modeling and detailing system on the market. Tekla Structures is an intelligent 3D modeling system that provides configurable, flexible and versatile solutions from structural engineering to detailing, fabrication, erection and facility and project management.

Tekla Structures is confi gurable software that serves as a common platform for all structural design processes. Seamless integration enables all processes to work via only one platform. All structural information, independent of material, is managed throughout the project lifecycle.

Project team members share information in real-time regardless of location – eliminating communication problems and reducing costs. For the steel detailing industry, this means that steel detailers, fabricators, contractors, erectors and engineering companies can enjoy revolutionary openness, collaboration, security and reliability – all while getting the job done quicker and more accurately.

Tekla Structures users in over 50 countries experience tremendous gains in productivity, accuracy and effi ciency. The advantages over other systems and detailing methods include superior technology, ease of use, fl exibility and absolute unrivaled collaboration with other members of the design team.
