Tekla Structures
Create, combine, manage, and share accurate, information-rich 3D models for structural BIM.
Executive Summary
Tekla Structures is a powerful 3D modeling software developed by Trimble, specifically designed for structural engineering and Building Information Modeling (BIM). It enables structural design engineers, detailers, fabricators, contractors, and project managers to create, combine, manage, and share highly accurate, information-rich 3D models. The software supports a material-independent approach, allowing users to work with various structural materials. This solution is integral to the construction workflow, helping professionals plan projects with precision, ensure design accuracy, and streamline collaboration across all project phases. Tekla Structures integrates seamlessly with other Trimble products like Tekla Tedds and Tekla Structural Designer, and leverages Trimble Connect for open collaboration, data sharing, and customized workflows, ensuring efficient data flow and project coordination.
