How to Provide Multiple Starter bars in Footings 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 multiple starter bars in footings in Tekla Structures.  So let's start the step by step procedure. Step 1: Before placing starter bars must verify that all footings and columns are placed properly.   Step 2: Go to the application and component section in search bar type 87 i.e. app 87(Stater bar for footing).   NOTE: Sometimes applications are not visible then click on Show hidden items. Step 3: Define all the parameters of the app 87 by double clicking on it then make required changes. Step 4: To select all the footings at once make a front view of the entire model then select all the footings by dragging from left to right. Step 5: Starter bars will be provided automati

How to Provide Reinforcement in Multiple Footings 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 footings in Tekla Structures.  So let's start the step by step procedure. Step 1: At first make sure all your footings are placed properly.  Step 2: In the application and component section look for app no. 77 Step 3: Define all the parameter of the application by double clicking on the application and make required changes.  Step 4 : Go the the front view of the model and select all the footings by dragging the mouse from left to right. Step 5: Reinforcement will be provided in all the footings at once.  Step 6: To verify change the view to Parts shaded wireframe. Step 7: Last check is to verify if reinforcement is properly arranged in the footin

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 selected members of y

How to Fit Part Ends 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 fit part ends in Tekla Structures. We use this technique to avoid overlapping of concrete in two structural members. So let's start the step by step procedure. Step 1: Identify the part that you want to fit.  Step 2: Go to edit-> Fit part end Step 3: Select the object Step 4: Mark where you want to deduce.  Step 5: You object will be fitted properly.  To know in detail, watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bptSJXS2a_E About us: Civil Center is a Civil Engineering Consultancy company which provides services ranging from Building Consultancy Services like Architectural Plan, Structural Drawing, Estimation, 3D Views of Interior and Exterior of a Building, Const
