Trimble has announced three new versions of its Tekla software solutions for structural engineering, fabrication and construction teams: Tekla Structures 2017, Tekla Structural Designer 2017 and Tekla Tedds 2017.
“In these new Tekla versions, we focus on improving communication and modelling methods because these are directly tied to the productivity of core tasks within large workgroups and projects,” says Jari Heino, general manager of Trimble’s Structures Division.
“The software provides a variety of completely new tools for users to expand their scope of work and collaborate with project stakeholders to ensure that the entire team is on the same page.”
For general design, the new version of Tekla Structures building information modelling (BIM) software offers more control over direct modification, which allows users to create an accurate structural model quicker and easier.
Tekla Structural Designer, an analysis and design (A&D) software, compresses design time by enabling an efficient way to quickly establish the best structural solution.
Developed to improve engineering productivity and quality, Tekla Tedds automates repetitive and error prone structural and civil calculations.
In the 2107 version, Trimble has added a large number of new calculations and enhancements to existing calculations across various design codes.
