How to Import a Building Model From Tekla Structural Designer to Revit Structures

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 .

As we know TSD is a structure analysis and design software and Revit Structures is a detailing software .

So let’s go step by step to know how to import a building model from TSD to Revit Structures.

Step 1

So for exporting a TSD file into revit software we will have to go to the home option and there we can find one option of BIM Integration and then we will have one Revit export option we will choose that and next option will be your origin keep that 0,0 and click on next and then you can select the options that you want to export like levels, grids, slabs, members, walls foundation and even we can export the analysis result also.

Step 2

Then click on next and you can see the concrete grade then click on next select the option of first time export and then save the file.

Step 3

Before importing the file in Revit software we will need one particular software i.e Tekla Structural Designer Integrator for Autodesk Revit . For downloading this software you must have a Trimble account . After downloading you can open your Revit structures and open a new file so for opening a new file go to the Architecture option and select a Metric structural template and then click on ok and then you can see a new file has been created in revit .

Step 4

Next step is to select Tekla integration and integrator structural designer and one interface will come for importing select next and then click on first time import and then click on next than select the file that you want to export and select the things that you want to import like levels, grids, slabs, members, walls foundation then click on next you will see the grade of concrete has not recognized for that click on advance and select concrete in situ then click on finish. It will take some time and you will see it is imported.

Step 5

Now for the 3D Model we will have to go to the view and select the 3D view and you can see the default 3D view and you can do the detailing there.

So like this you can Export the file into Revit software.

Tekla structural Designer VS ETABS.

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 see the difference between TSD and ETABS. Step 1 As per the modelling aspects in ETABS we can import the grid lines we cannot import the shadow of an architectural drawing and in Tekla, we can import grid lines as well as the shadow of an architectural drawing assigning beams and columns is very easy and the modelling becomes quick. In ETABS we cannot see the extruded view easily but in TSD we can see the extruded view easily. Basically, visualization is easy in TSD as compared to ETABS. Step 2 In TSD load application is very easy as the dead load and live load both are almost same but in the wind...

What are TOF, SSL, & TOS in Tekla structural designer ?

Tekla structural designer (TSD) is a simple, integrated design & analysis software that gives engineers the power to analyze and design buildings efficiently and profitably. Pile foundation as two parts likely pile cap and pile, here in TSD we can design the pile cap but not the pile. TOF (Top of foundation), TOS (Top of steel), SSL (Structural slab level) are the terms in TSD software which are used while creating levels. Refer the below steps we will know about TOF , SSL & TOS : Step 1 Go to TSD software and click on construction levels, under that section you will come across the type of level being designed, likely TOF, TOS, & SSL. TOF: Top of foundation is a level which is helpful for placing foundation, plinth level and helps in excavation work identification also. TOS: Top of steel (level) takes a major part while you are working with the steel structures, composite structures or else steel structure completely, so in these cases you can mak...

Difference Between Tekla Structures and Tekla Structural Designer

NTRODUCTION: Tekla Structures and Tekla Structural Designer both are Software Developed by Trimble, some of the major differences between the two software are as Follows. 1. USAGE: The following are the primary differences between the two software based on their usage and the final product generated. TEKLA STRUCTURAL DESIGNER (TSD) is a Structural Analysis & Design Software, it is used for structural analysis and design of all structural members after the application of loads (Eg. Live Load, Dead Load, Wind Load, Seismic Load etc.) as per the standard code provisions, varying with the location of construction of building. TEKLA STRUCTURES (TS) is a Structural Detailing & Building Information Modelling (BIM) Software, it can be used for creating detailed model after we have the Structural design results. After finishing the BIM Model, a section can be cut from any Plane to generate Good For Construction Drawings (GEC) with detailing of rebar specifying the...
