Tekla Structures Reviews & Product Details

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Development of a 3D model.

Interface.

Creation of Drawings.

Usage of plugins.

Usage of IFC files for coordination.

Cloud-based sharing of models so that anyone and more number of person can easily work over the same model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

1. Less Efficient in terms of the development of drawings as compared to some other tools.

2. If any button is pressed or if there is any click on the window in which Tekla is opened the program gets stuck.

3. Even though the command gets multiple clicks the program gets frozen when the size of the models developed is big.

4. Multiple models cannot be opened at the same time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Tekla Structures is one of the user-friendly software for modeling structures. It has the accuracy of detailing complex cross-sections. One of the powerful BIM software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Tekla Structures is very sensitive to the internet connection, and also, in working in a multi-user model, sometimes it has performance issues. Some model drawings began to crush. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

In tekla structures, cloning the shop drawings is very helpful for detailing similar elements.

For element naming numbering system was very good to find out similar element in whole model. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Tekla structures is mostly used for detailing part and than the modeling. After exporting shop drawings to DWG file everything will convert to block and main drawback was dimensions won't form after export to DWG file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of Tekla Structures' key strengths is its high accuracy and flexibility in modelling complex structures, including steel, concrete, and timber. The software enables users to create highly detailed 3D models of systems, including their components and connections, which can lead to improved design quality and reduced errors.

Additionally, Tekla Structures supports collaboration among team members by allowing multiple users to access and work on the same model simultaneously, which helps to streamline the design process and reduce the risk of errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The high level of complexity in Tekla Structures can make it challenging for new users to master and require powerful hardware to run effectively. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
