Trimble introduced the latest version of Tekla software solution for constructible Building Information Modeling (BIM) — Tekla Structures 2021 SP2. New Tekla software features and enhancements continue to power data-driven, collaborative and connected workflows across all project phases.

Tekla Structures is advanced structural BIM software for creating, combining, managing and sharing multi-material 3D models packed with constructible data. From conceptual planning to fabrication, construction and maintenance, to design, detailing and information management, Tekla models contain all the structural data needed to build and maintain any type of structure.

Tekla Structures 2021 introduces three new subscription options, which can reduce the upfront investment and provide flexibility to balance license needs with an annual subscription of the software solutions. With flexible subscription options, users can choose the appropriate Tekla Structures subscription based on their needs:

Carbon: for viewing models and collaborating with project stakeholders
Graphite: for creating constructible, intelligent BIM and structural documentation
Diamond: for design, detailing and fabrication

The latest version of Tekla Structures also delivers enhancements, improvements and new features that simplify the user experience for more efficient workflows, increased productivity and collaboration across project teams, including:
- Simplified change management with enhanced clash detection and cloning tools
- Better usability with in-product guidance and localization
- Faster, more accurate modeling with drawing and object handling improvements, and new extensions for various modeling tasks including modeling scaffolding
- Increased interoperability with improvements for IFC and other formats, deeper integration with the Trimble Connect™ collaboration platform and continued enhancements to Tekla Model Sharing
