Tekla Structures 18, Full is an all-inclusive configuration containing functionality for all design-to-construction disciplines. Users can create 3D models of both steel and concrete structures, generate output data used during fabrication and erection phases, communicate and manage information from supply to installation as well as track project status. The modeling function allows users to View Tekla models (all materials and profiles) Create and modify grids Model parts (regardless of building material) and bolts Create welds Add loads to a model Model reinforcements Create assemblies of steel parts Create cast units of concrete parts Create levels of assembly hierarchy Create detailed (steel and concrete) connections Create automatic preset connections to multiple parts Create erection sequences View model information in 4D (simulated schedule) Assign and manage construction phase schedules Map scheduled tasks to objects in the model Mark/number parts automatically The output function allows users to Create cast-in-place concrete reinforcement drawings with bending schedules Customize drawing title blocks and reports Create general arrangement drawings (plan, section, erection) Create single-part and assembly drawings (steel) Create cast-unit drawings (precast concrete) Print and plot drawings and reports Create reports (assembly lists, part lists) Create reinforcement reports (bending schedules, weights, amounts) The collaboration properties allow users to Work simultaneously on the same model with several users Interface with other tools and disciplines View Tekla models with an Internet browser Exchange data (CIS/2 format, MIS systems) Export CNC, DSTV Import external/export data via links (FEM, SDNF, XML) Import and export data via IFC 2x2, 2x3 and Tekla Open API™ Interface with Analysis and Design software for data exchange Import and export graphic 2D and 3D data (DXF, DGN, DWG)
