1. Purpose and description
This package installs Concrete Estimation tool which generates estimation from the Tekla Structures Model as per Indian Standard (IS1200) Estimation contains Concrete Volume , Formwork Area, (calculations as per IS1200) , Rebar weight and rebar coupler quantity (as avaialble in the model). Phase wise excel report can be extracted for estimation.
2. System requirements
Environments: India
Languages: ENGLISH
3. Installation
To install the application
Download and run .tsep file which is available in the Applications category (or as a search) of Tekla Warehouse
Have Tekla Structures closed during installation.
Reopen Tekla Structures once installation is complete.
4. Usage
To use the application:
Start Tekla Structures with below settings.
Use role as Concrete Estimator to use this tool.
Set Estimation attributes for model objects in their UDAs. Only those objects were used for estimation where these attributes are set.
Use 'Estimation Parameters' tab in User Defined attributes.
Below object types are supported.
Beams - Rectangular, other (for other than rectangular shapes)
Columns - Rectangular, Circular, other (for other than rectangular or circular shapes)
Slabs
Walls
PCC
Foundation - Rectangular, Trapezoidal, Raft (for any other shape foundation)
Rebar
Couplers (connecting same dia bars)
RC couplers connecting different dia bars (need to set specific UDA inside coupler)
Staircase, Ramp
Set phases for export using phase manager.
Run Concrete Estimator from catalog.
Generating Quanitities
Select the phase you want to generate quantities for, from the dropdown. Click on + (plus) button to generate quantities for selected phase.
View Quantities
Then select object type from Object's list on right side to view quantities. Click on summary button to see summary of concrete quantities.
Updating / Removing quantities
You can then select another phase and click on + (plus) button to generate quantities for that phase. When you select the phase which quantities you have already generated they will be loaded (as calculated last time, model may be different) you can click - (minus) button to delete quantities for selected phase from estimation database. Click on + (plus) button again to update quantities for selected phase.
Exporting Quantities
Click on Export button to export consolidated excel workbook with all quanities of selected phase.
