Export a small Offshore Platform to Trimble Sketchup

Export a small Offshore platform using the Publish to 3D-PDF extension, which is available on the Tekla Warehouse. Note: A more recent version of this video tutorial is available at https://teklastructures.support.tekla.com/video-tutorials/en/export_3d_pdf.

Small offshore platform exporting from the Detailed model to Tekla BIMsight for other project diciplines to review the model.   

Use automated dimensioning to create dimension marks to your drawings.

Collaborate on Tekla Structures models regardless of team members' location.The video has spoken narration in English.

Create concrete stairs with reinforcement.The video has spoken narration in English.

Model and plan pours just like they are built. Pour breakbuilding object used to split a pour object into smaller pour objects adaptivityautomatic linking of model objects to another model objectFor example, reinforcement and surface treatment automatically adapt to the changes made to the part they are linked with. enables easier pour handling.The video has spoken narration in English.

Spend less time with categorizing objects and updating your categories.The video has spoken narration in English.

The new side pane makes it easy to manage your reference models.The video has spoken narration in English.

Direct modificationfunction that activates the mode where the model objects can be modified by using handlesDirect modification enables additional handles and modification options. now covers construction objects and custom parts.The video has spoken narration in English.

Create meshreinforcement that represents a mesh of steel bars in two perpendicular directionsIn Tekla Structures, the reinforcement mesh bars in one direction are called main bars and reinforcement mesh bars perpendicular to them are called crossing bars. reinforcement for cast-in-place and precast structures.The video has spoken narration in English.

After each activation, deactivation, and repairing process of your Tekla Structures licenses, you will need to have a new backup copy of the activated licenses (trusted storage). This video demonstrates how to take a backup copy of the activated licenses (trusted storage). The backup copy is needed in some situations like if the computer/server crashed or if the activated licenses got broken or perhaps a case that you formatted the computer/server without a successful deactivation of the activated licenses.

This video demonstrates how to upgrade Tekla Structures License Server to the higher version

This video demonstrates the licenses deactivation process. During the deactivation process, the licenses rights will be transferred from the customer's end back to Tekla for further activation time in future.

This video demonstrates how to activate your Tekla Structures Licenses to be able to use them. Tekla Structures uses FLEXnet licensing system technology in order to transfer the licenses rights electronically from the software vendor (Tekla) to the customer during the licenses activation.

This video shows how Tekla Structures can automatically prepare parts for welding.

This video shows how you can bring in geometry created in other software by importing shapes. Items that use imported shapes can be reinforced, cut, counted, and reported just like any other Tekla native objects.

Use importing and exporting for merging profiles across different profile catalogs. This video shows how to export profiles and how to import directories.

Use importing and exporting for merging bolt catalogs. This video shows how to export and import bolts and bolt assemblies.

This video shows you how to modify the gridmodeling aid that represents a three-dimensional complex of horizontal and vertical planesIn Tekla Structures, grids are used as an aid in locating objects in a model. The grid is shown on the view plane by dash-and-dot lines. It is also possible to show grids and grid line labels in drawings, and to modify grid properties in the drawings.It is possible to have more than one grid in a model.
