We would be grateful if you could place an emphasis upon the skills required by students/users, as well as the practical benefits of your platform.
TEKLA STRUCTURAL DESIGNER
Trimble Navigation acquired Tekla in 2011 and CSC in November 2013. These two companies have now merged to create the Structures division of Trimble Buildings. This move has brought the benefits of the CSC suite of structural analysis tools to the Tekla brand.
So after 18 months of development work, Tekla announced the launch of Tekla Structural Designer in March this year– a comprehensive analysis tool bringing the combined benefits of the suite of Fastrak, Orion and Solve into one comprehensive design and analysis package.
TEDDS
In addition to these BIM products, Tekla also has Tedds. Often described by customers as the ‘go to’ product for structural engineering calculations, the Tedds’ library of calculations automates these processes and eliminates the need for hand calculations or cumbersome spreadsheets.
TEKLA BIMSIGHT
Tekla BIMsight is a free software product that offers a powerful way to access data, collaborate on projects, clash detect models and sequence a scheme amongst many other functions. A place that many people might start their BIM journey.
TEKLA FIELD 3D
If that wasn’t enough then Tekla can also offer mobile solutions in the form of Tekla Field 3D, a 3D tool for utilising any size of models on Apple devices, allowing stakeholders without desktop software to combine and view 3D models.
