Tekla excels in detailing complex steel joints. It automates the creation of shop drawings, general arrangement drawings, and CNC (Computer Numerical Control) files. These files can be sent directly to steel fabrication machines, cutting beams and drilling holes with micron-level accuracy. This seamless integration from model to machine drastically reduces manual drafting errors and accelerates fabrication schedules.
The Aethelgard Tower had a complex, curved post-tensioned slab. Traditionally, modeling rebar in 3D was so tedious that engineers often just did it in 2D and left the clash resolution to the site crew—a recipe for jackhammers and change orders. tekla structural solutions

Trimble Show all Burj Khalifa 4.7 (169.9K) Landmark Open Dubai - United Arab Emirates The world’s tallest building relied on Tekla to model its intricate geometry and ensure a seamless workflow for its complex structure. The Museum of the Future 4.4 (53.3K) Museum Closed Dubai - United Arab Emirates Known as one of the world's most beautiful and complex buildings, its torus-like shape was made possible through Tekla's powerful 3D modeling and API flexibility, which resolved clashes between roofing, facade, and structural trades during the design phase. Landmark 81 4.6 (21.2K) Tourist attraction Ho Chi Minh, Vietnam Southeast Asia's tallest building was completed 45 days ahead of schedule because Tekla allowed for the precise detailing of dense rebar and composite steel structures. Manitoba Hydro Spillway This project won awards for being the first hydroelectric project to have its steel, concrete, and rebar fully detailed in a single 3D environment.
