Tekla Structural Designer is an advanced software used for Structural Analysis and Design of a Building.In Tekla we can do detailing of steel structures as well as RCC structures we can create RCC buildings and we can insert the rebars in Tekla structures Designer software.  We can also do the form works and structural drawing without the help of any other softwares .

By following the steps you can know about how to response spectrum analysis in TSD:

  • To understand the concept of Response Spectrum Analysis in TSD , First we need to create a small and simple building model. For that first we need to open a new TSD model then go to model and click on Construction Level to create Construction level for a small building model. 

  • Now we need to insert a level below its -1.2m and insert level above giving spacing of 3.2 and change type to S.S.L(Structural Slab Level) and give its slab thickness of 100mm. Now after we have done this now if we want to see the levels what we have created for that go to structural Window you can see your level option andhere all the levels are created.
  • Now we have to create the Grid line for that. First we need to go to the plinth level that is the structural base then go to the grid line option and we will use a rectangular wizard to create the grid line. Letscreat grid line in x-direction, select bays take count 1 and take length 6m now in Y-direction take count 1 and length 4m and click Next and again Next and then Finish.
  • Once the grid line is created now it's time to create the column, so go to the concrete section and click on the column and in this column properties there are various options but we will just choose the default option, now to create a column we need to simply drag on the grid lines and columns will be created.
  • Now in the Plinth level we will also create the beams and in the st.(1) level create beams and as well as our slab also.After that we can see that a simple structure has been created.
  • Next step is to apply some loads, so we will apply basic Live load for that go to St. 1(1) Level  and we will use basic imposed  load and go to Load and take area load or even we can take Level load let’s take level load of 2 KN/m2.
  • Now let’s create Seismic load for that go to Load click on Seismic load and go to seismic Wizard and then code spectra and change Ignore seismic in floor (and below) to Plinth level and take Importance Factor as 1 for a normal building and click on Next and select Use modal response spectrum Analysis and click on next, now change structure type to RC MRF Building without any masonry infills on both Fundamental Period Dir 1 and 2 and click on Next, now change type of Seismic Force Resisting System Dir 1 and 2 to i) Moment Frame System and then Next now we will just sift all loadcase consideration of all live and dead loads to right  Next and then Finish.
  • After this a Combination Generator will appear and go to the scenario and click on operating and next and in combination as in the Indian standard we will go with the Limit State combination due to the seismic load and then Next and Finish .
  • After that we will just go to load and create the Load Combination and click on generate, keep the scenario as operating and Next and in combination limit state will select only and Next again Next, Finish And click on OK.
  • And now go to Design, in Analysis & Design click on Design all (Static).
  • After design we need to select all of the columns and go to its properties. Here we can see the seismic zone, we just click on In a seismic force resisting system and keep SFRS direction as D1 but we need to change SFRS type to Ordinary Moment Frame.
  • Now After that we select all the beams and go to the seismic zone and change SFRS direction as D1 & D2 and change SFRS type as Ordinary moment frame.
  • Now after having done that we will just go to design and Design All (RSA). 
  • As we see, the building has been designed as per RSA. 
  • Now let’s check the design for that select any member then right click on it then go to interactive design and RSA and now we can see the RSA design.  
We can also check out the forces first select any load combination or load, now we have to go to the results view and select any type of analysis let’s take 1 order RSA and now we can check out the deflection, shear forces , moments results etc. so we can get all the shear forces and moment.

So I hope you can now understand how response spectrum analysis is done in Tekla Structural Designer(TSD).

How to study the Reinforcement Drawings of beams which have been generated in TSD.

Tekla Structural Designer is advanced software used for Structural Analysis and Design of a Building. In Tekla, we can do the detailing of steel structures as well as RCC structures. We can create RCC buildings and we can insert the rebars in Tekla structures Designer software.  We can also do the form works and structural drawing without the help of any other software. Let’s go step by step to learn how to study the Reinforcement Drawings of beams that have been generated in TSD. Step 1 As we can see, this building has been fully designed and analysed. Now, just right click on the beam then click on the report for the member and it will generate the report for the member and we will see this and after that, we can also check the file for the particular beam.     Fig.1 Step 2 Now we have 3 numbers of sections, for each beam, it has been made and the respective cross-section is also given. Step 3 Now if we just go through the drawing, we can see that we have 2 bars of 16mm at the top an

How to Provide Reinforcement in multiple columns in Tekla Structures

  Tekla Structures is a Building Information Modeling (BIM) software able to model structures that incorporate different kinds of building materials, including steel, concrete, timber and glass. However it is widely used for the detailing of structural drawing.  In this blog, we are going to discuss how  to provide reinforcement in multiple columns in Tekla Structures.  So let's start the step by step procedure Step 1 : At first we must make sure that our model is correct and after that we will look for the column reinforcement application.   Step 2 : Search result will give us lots of options which includes application of column (for both the RCC and steel).  Step 3 : Now from there we have to select an app for RCC. column.  Step 4 : We will go for Application no. 57 which is "Column automated reinforcement layout". Step 5 : Select and define the application according to our requirement. Now select all the columns by dragging the mouse from right to left. It will select

STAAD Pro Vs Tekla Structural Designer .Which One Is Better ?

  Tekla Structural Designer (TSD) is a simple, integrated design & analysis software that enables engineers to deliver safe, effective and rationalized design more quickly, regardless of structural material. Reinforcement drawings for the entire building or tonnes of steel for estimating and many more.    So in the above image you can see the first image is created in Tekla Structural Designer (TSD) and in the second image the model has been created in Staad Pro  . we can start the comparison with the grid lines. So for creating grid lines in staad we need to enter the coordinates from the beam column plan as shown in fig.1 and we need to insert it while viewing the beam column plan. Fig 1 We can create grid lines in Tekla Structural Designer directly and in addition        you can also import the beam column plan as shadow as shown in fig 2 .  Fig. 2 • Next step is adding members in staad pro so in addition we need to see the beam column plan again and again so that we can place
