In this lessons you will see how to invite users to your shared model

On this video you will see how to create a shared model.

Take a look at customizing the Applications & Components cataloguser interface for displaying or modifying information in categorized listsFor example, profile catalog and shape catalog are catalogs. so that you can more easily find your favorite tools in Tekla Structures. In this video we will: Create custom groups of tools by type Organize your custom groups Link external applications

These improvements are available starting from Tekla Structures 2018. In this video we introduce: The Drawing Content Manager - a new interactive tool for checking and editing marks, notes and model objects in the current drawing. Improved mark placement New ways to interact with drawing marks

In this video we take a quick look at some of the most common settings you may want to make when starting a project. Watch to see a review of several options including: Standard bolt diameter and grade when components are set to "Default" Dual-Dimensioning in Imperial and Metric - often needed for government contracts in the US Standard units - commonly used for more accurate gauge material modeling

Tekla Structures 2017i introduces a new tool for creating rebar sets. With Rebar shape placing tool you can reinforce both parts and pour objects using predefined bar shapes. The rebar sets you create may extend across single or multiple objects. You can easily select cross sections or object faces that you want to reinforce, and then, using preview and direct modification, place rebar sets in the model.

You can now insert point clouds into Tekla Structures 2018.  In construction, the point clouds are mainly used in renovation projects to define the building or structure that is to be renovated. They can also be used to get the exact position of existing machinery, pipework or landscape that needs to be taken into consideration on the site. You can also use them for checking execution by importing them as build points into a model to be compared to the design.

In Tekla Structures 2018 most model objects now have a property pane in the modeling mode. The new property pane replaces the previously used model object properties dialog boxes. The new property pane has several benefits compared to the previously used property dialog boxes:

In this video, we create rebar sets using the Rebar shape placing tooltool that is used for creating rebar sets using predefined reinforcing bar shapesRebar shape placing tool for rebar sets is similar to reinforcing bar shape catalog for reinforcing bar groups.. We will use the following predefined rebar shapes: straight, U-shape, L-shape, and stirrup.

This video shows a featurepart of Tekla Structures functionality that is maintained and owned by Trimble Solutions and that is included in the Tekla Structures installation that many Tekla modelers, especially on the steel side, are not aware of. If you need to modify the shape of a cut, you don't always need to accomplish it with one command or object, instead you can actually cut the cut to restore material to your steel objects.

Learn how to create your own published attributes, so that components can be applied much quicker in the model with your saved settingsmaster drawing where the drawing settings are saved in a drawing property file and used when creating a new drawing of a specific drawing type, instead of having to individually load and apply different settings each time.

In this video, we cover how to use the US Base Platecomponent object that represents a plate welded to a column baseBase plates are used to distribute the concentrated load of the column over a wider area. (1047) to create a plate(1) part that represents a flat structure(1) In some contexts, for example in analysis, the term plate object may be used to refer to plates.(2) plate that represents a steel structure(2) Plate is mainly us

This video shows the Export To Steel Erection Bid Wizard extension which creates a report that can be exported to the Steel Erection Bid Wizard software. The Steel Erection Bid Wizard software is an estimating solution for erectors. You can download the extension from Tekla Warehouse.

You can import custom cross sections and add them as DWG profiles to the profile catalogcatalog that displays profiles and information on the profilesIn addition to the available profiles in the respective Tekla Structures environment, the user can add fixed or parametric user-defined profiles to the profile catalog. It is also possible to import profiles to the profile catalog.. This video shows you:

In this video we show how to create a custom Title block within the Tekla Template Editortool in Tekla Structures that is used for creating and modifying templates to be used in drawings and reports using an existing DWG file as a starting point. The video covers:
