How to Change the Colour of Gridlines and Member Loads in Tekla Structural Designer

  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 .     So let’s go step by step to know how to change the colour of Gridlines. Step 1 First of all import the grids once the grids have been uploaded select the grids and in the left side of the fig.1 you can see the options of grids, style , show name so we will choose the architectural drawing  and then we can change the colour as we want .                                                                Fig 1   Step 2 In the next step is to change the colour of the member loads, so you can see in the fig.2 we have G+3 Building design fully loaded with loads where the dead loads are denoted by the green colour so , for c

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
