A stud is special type of bolt that is welded to steel parts to transfer loads between steel and concrete.
Tekla Structures uses the same command for creating
bolts, studs and
holes. When you create studs, select the stud assembly standard in the
Bolt properties. You can create a group of studs or a single stud.
You can also create studs by using the
Shear Stud (1010) component.
