Tekla Structures Reviews

What I like about Tekla Structures is I am able to create a 3D model for any structures, it helps me visualize the projects and see possible error or clashes may occur on site.

What I dislike about Tekla Structures is the annual upgrade of software but overall, I find it helpful. It helps me improved my knowledge and skills in Tekla by exploring and adapting to updated version of Tekla Structures.

Tekla Structures is very helpful as a BIM because the command and tools are user-friendly. Through Tekla, I am able to create a 3D model of structures, get the rebar cutting lists, the bar bending schedule and more.

From 3D Model you can easily export BOM list, assembly list, Drawing list, and General arrangement list. It gives you the opportunity to follow up from scratch to building

One Click section viewer should be added to the next versions. And extracting 3D CAD DWG features should be more developed. Rendering should be more realistic views for steel structures. It may give you in the future easy presentation to clients or stakeholders.

Follow-up is very easy with tekla drawings. you can colour manufactured or erected parts and you can filter them. with this filter, you can see the manufacturing process or erection at the site visually. Moreover, this feature gives you a list that you can compare with overall BOM.

Tekla structure is mostly used for Fabrication drawings preparation. It's Drawing generation system which i like most important part in this software. Also modelling part easy to model simple to difficult structure.

Drawing outputs.. while generating drawings from model the outputs is not recommended to use in single shot, we have more time spent in this part to setup output file.

Tekla structure easy to use and we can do steel work as well as concrete structure work in this software. Rebar drawing also benefiting our business. Fabrication works more profitable business with this product.

Good software for steel, concrete, timber and Glass

Doesn't contain information about roundings of Hot rolled sections

Model-based software that saves money by improved efficiency and faster design

It is very friendly and easy to learn any kind of learners. One of the best tools for steel structures.

I didn't find any difficulties with tekla yet. I will update if i find any.

Easy the develop 3d model. Easy to generate and detail GA drawings and shop drawings. Easy to provide reports.

I used Autocad a Few years back in my college. But Tekla Structure is way easy and organized to use. The view of sections of the drawings is easy to understand in Tekla Structures as compared to Autocad. I think in today's time All design firms that are still working in Autocad should shift to Tekla for better growth and knowledge.

The online e-learning course is way too slow for me. There should be more educational Courses for a better learning experience. And please add Settings to view the video in 1.5 or 2X. So Learners may be able to see the video and learn in their own speed.

It's helping me to understand the smallest details of structures. And my concepts are getting more clearer.

It's easy to use and convenient in presenting for meetings about the structure you and your team are planning to build. In terms of 3D designing and detailing, it is better than the Revit structure.

This software is excellent, but sometimes it gets mixed inches and cubic meters on the same layout .

It can improve by defining the unit separately. The software is great

This software is excellent at presenting and visualizing the structure. Quickly get detailed information about the structural member.

Able to model complex structural connections rather easily

Complex customization sometimes make it harder to set

Easy structure modelling and connection

In Tekla structure, the rebar detailing is very easy compared to other software, and its steel detailing and formwork detailing are also suitable.

The best thing about this software is there are some features by which you can do rebar detailing of any element in a single click.

In Tekla structure, I wouldn't say I like their concrete modeling; if I compare it with revit, there are very few options in Tekla for concrete modeling. All else is good.

I mainly prefer using Tekla for rebar detailing and BBS prepration, which is very easy and time-saving.

You can model rebar with just a single click. After that, you have to modify it as per your requirement. Also, Tekla generates shop drawings by itself.

The software is having very good and very easy to use, detailing for the steel structure can be done very good, it's 3D and 2D both modeling software uses for the structure

The software is very expansive and taking more time to open and close for the application

Tekla software is not having more command and the benefits is detailing and modeling is done more accurate
