How to apply Wind Load In Irregular Building!! Tekla Structural Designer.

In structural design, wind load is a type of lateral load which plays a very important role, especially if the building height is more than 10 m and the building is in a cyclone-prone zone. When wind acts on a building or any type of structure, the resulting force acting on the building elevation is called "wind load".

The magnitude of the wind load depends upon the angle at which the wind makes contact with the building and also the structure size (Viz. height, width)

In this blog, we are going to discuss how to apply wind loads on irregular buildings.

So let's start the step by step procedure

Step 1: Let us consider an irregular building model in Tekla structural design and go to base level, draw some construction lines by taking offsets from existing construction lines.

Step 2: Also go to the topmost level and in the properties menu tick the option of Show Grids in 3D.

Step 3: Turn on the gridline visibility in the 3D View from the scene content menu

Step 4: Go to model option and select wall panels and create panels around the irregular building model, cover it from all the sides so that a surface is present for the wind loads to act.

Step 5: Go to scene content and turn on wind panels and select all the panels and select all the panels and tick on the rigid diaphragm option from the properties menu.

Step 6: Then go loading and select wind wizard and give basic wind speed value and all other requisites, as per your building Design Code selected.

Step 7: Under the Load option, create the required load combinations, and then in the design option, click on “Design All Static”, to check the design results

How to Modify User Interface of Tekla Structures

Tekla Structures is a building information modeling 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 a detailing software like Tekla Structures, it is very useful we can import the plan or the gridline of the beam column plane directly, as it helps us to assign the elements of the structure which we are going to make in Tekla Structures. In this blog, we are going to discuss how we can modify User Interface in Tekla Structures. So let's start the step by step procedure. To change the size of icons in toolbar and font size in Ribbon Step 1: Go to file Step 2: Select Settings Step 3: There you will find and option of User Interface Step 4: To change the size of icons of the toolbar you have three options of small, medium and large. You can choose any according to your requirement Step 5: To change the font size of R...

3D Render and Animations 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 we can take out 3D render and animations in Tekla structures. So let's start the step by step procedure. Step 1: First of all you will have to install Visualizer tools in Tekla Structure. You can get these apps from the website of trimble. Step 2: After your installation is complete you will have to restart your Tekla so that it can work smoothly. Step 3: Go to the application and component section and search visualize. Step 4: You will find 3 options over there viz. Visualize all, Visualize selected, and Visualize material type mapping. Step 5: Visualize all will take out the render of the whole model. Visualize selected will take out the render of only the select...
