TEKLA SOFTWARE IN PRACTICE
STEEL INDUSTRY
A TRIMBLE COMPANY

2/8
aWorking with Tekla software is the most
advanced and integrated way to managedetailing, fabrication and erection of all steel
structures, such as commercial buildings,
industrial plants, sports stadiums, pre-engineered
buildings, and offshore platforms and jackets
including miscellaneous steel work.
No other tool on the market supports building
information management throughout the process,
creating new opportunities for your business.
Tekla provides a BIM-based solution to
increase productivity of especially large, data-rich
projects through higher automation of fabrication
and project management in 4D by
interfacing with MIS systems and
CNC machinery.
INFORMATION MANAGEMENT
THROUGHOUTYOUR PROCESS
The level of integrating Tekla to ourinternal applications is increasing,
which means less data entry and a
greater level of sophistication in data
exchange with external partners. By
modeling the structures to fabricate,
we can facilitate acquisition of
data for the bid preparation, assist
management in solving complex
construction issues, and provide the
sales force with a high-quality medium.It is much easier to manage detailing
activities using the 3D model.

Canam Group Inc.
Tekla is devoted to local customersupport, offering softwareimplementation and trainings,online communities and self-learning material, as well asindustry networking events.

Tekla provided an excellent interfacewith our fabrication facilities. Controlof weight, profiles, dimensions etc. wasalways available to provide accuratepurchase and follow up on the progressof the project. We were able to deliverthe steel structure three months aheadof time.

BIM BENEFITSALLSTRUCTURES
Improve information flow, eliminate duplicate
work, and reduce lead times by detailing
faster, more efficiently and productively.
Model and detail all kinds of standard profiles
and materials, including tubular and elliptical
sections as well as individual welds and bolts,
and integrate model to all offshore industry
standard packages, such as PDS and PDMS.
Become more competitive and win more
work with better bids by offering higher
project quality throughout the process.
Collaborate and communicate with other parties by improved
workflow and tighter control of jobs with integrated management
tools and by recording and tracking job history visually.

Model and detail a wide range
of miscellaneous items from
architectural metalwork, such as
balustrading, staircases, security
work and sheet metalwork,
through to structural steelwork
and refurbishment, stainless steel
fabrications, and structural glass
installations.
Produce a detailed 3D model including
foundation layout, tower components,
and connections, and create production
drawings from the same 3D model.
Avoid repetitive work or duplicated
information by adaptive PEB frame
components, customizing to company-specificrequirements, automatic drawing production,
and interfacing with other software.
Enhance customer loyalty and
satisfaction by offering a wider
range of services, allowing last
minute changes with confidence,
and reducing risks for everyone.
E-ENGINEERED BUILDINGS, MISCELLANEOUS METAL WORK, BRIDGES, TRANSMISSION TOWERS
Our investment in BIM-related technology and processes has really paid
off. Weve delivered ahead of time with virtually zero errors in the field.
This has contributed to completing the structural steel portion of a project
significantly under budget. BIM is a true team effort that requires owners
and general contractors who are willing to think outside of the box.

COMPONENTS ANDCONNECTIONSAutomate routine tasks to
create a model that represents
the real, as-built and detailed
building, by using an extensive
range of standard or custom
components and connections.
Automate connection designand detailing through
customizable rules.
DRAWINGSProduce fully integrated drawings, more
accurate material take-off, estimates and
material reports easier from the 3D model.
All drawings are associative with the model.
FABRICATIONProject management tools provide integrated
operations through the model, tracking changes,
and continually reviewing and monitoring the
entire project. Transfer data directly from the
model to estimating, scheduling, procurement,
production management, and automated,
accurate fabrication.
AUTOMATIC DATATO CNCInclude all layout information
in steel parts by scribing
technology to remove the
time-consuming and laborious
marking-out phase.

Tekla can be compared to a language withsophisticated features for describing structures. Inthe Guacolda project, Tekla technology enabled usto successfully support communications betweendesigners in Japan and steel frame fabricators inChile beyond the various forms of distances.

Clearly, the most significant benefit is theavailability of a single structural model fromwhich we can extract project plans and detailing,lists of materials, weights and centers of gravity.The software also allows direct interfacing to thepiping model in PDS.

OUR AMBITION IS TO MULTIPLY YOURPOTENTIAL TO THINK AND ACHIEVE BIG
Tekla is a registered trademark of Tekla Corporation in the European Union, the United States and in several other countries.
W With an ambition to multiply its customers potential to think and achieve big,Tekla provides a BIM (Building Information Modeling) software environment that can
be shared by contractors, structural engineers, steel detailers and fabricators, as well
as concrete detailers and manufacturers.
The highly detailed as-built 3D models created, combined and distributed with
Tekla software enable the highest level of constructability and production control.
Centralizing building information into the model allows for more collaborative and
integrated project management and delivery. This translates into increased productivityand elimination of waste, thus making construction and buildings more sustainable.
TWith its software, Tekla Corporationdrives the evolution of digital
information models and provides more
and more competitive advantage to
the construction and infrastructure
industries. Tekla software is used
worldwide to model all types of buildings.
Tekla was established in 1966, andtoday it has customers in 100 countries,
offices in 15 countries, and a global
partner network. Since 2011, Tekla has
been a part of the Trimble Group.
