Trimble Tekla Structures 2016 build 81 Easier modeling, easier learning It’s not just about the cool contemporary look. The new user interface makes modeling easier and faster. For example, why not start by choosing a model from the list of your recent models, and continue with creating your own custom tab. The default model colors are both pleasant and logical. Your model stands out from the calm background so you can easily spot what you need, while the icons are modern and recognizable. Two things have remained essentially the same, just improved: Keyboard shortcuts and command names. Collaboration BIM Change Management Great information management, great collaboration For construction, information about what has been done and who did it is critical. Using reference information from the other project parties is now smoother and more reliable: Tekla users can now see what changes others have made to that IFC model they received. Reference handling and collaboration are easier, prevent design and detailing errors. And Tekla Model Sharing has now more sophisticated change management. Drawings improvements Better drawings, faster and easier production Tekla product development has kept the wishes of customers in mind when working on drawing production. Creating and editing drawings is now easier, more flexible and reliable. 2D library is a collection of ready-made 2D details such as bolts where you can just pick details instead of drawing these. Importing, saving and reusing your specific 2D details saves even more time, and you can update details & notes across all project drawings. More new features Efficient features for structural steel fabricators Informed, easier cast in place concrete construction Smooth collaboration for structural engineers Powerful tools for precast concrete producers
