Set up the workspace

Before starting to model, check that your Tekla Structures workspace is set up correctly.

  1. Define the units and decimals you will use.
  2. Modify the grid to suit your needs. Create a modular grid if needed.
  3. Create some views to examine the model from different angles and elevations.
  4. Resize the work area to suit your project.
  5. Get familiar with the coordinate system. If you are modeling sloped structures, shift the work plane accordingly.
