1 Hints & Tips
1.1 Using Tekla Structures
These are some of the more common tips to know when starting out in Tekla Structures. Theuser is encouraged to memorize these functions or post them up near their monitor.
VIEWING HINTS
1. Help F1. Pressing it while in a specific function will bring you to the Help for that
particular function.
2. Undo CTRL-Z
3. Object inquire Right-click on object, Inquire
4. Refresh Right-click, Properties > Redraw window. Will get rid of weld symbols and/or measured dimensions
5. Part representation You can view the model as outlined, translucent, black, fullyrendered, or shaded using CTRL-1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.
6. Connection representation You can view the model as outlined, translucent, black,fully rendered, or shaded using SHIFT-1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.
7. Reference model representation You can view the model as outlined, translucent,black, fully rendered, or shaded using SHIFT-1, 2, 3, 4, or 5.
8. Clip planes Slice through structure by defining clip plane. Highlight view cube, right-click (in fully rendered view) to create clip plane. Left click to activate clipping plane
and move mouse. TROUBLESHOOTING: If user opens an older model in a newerversion, clipping planes may not work. Instead, import old model into a new versionmodel.
9. 3D View to Plane View CTRL-P
10. Display object text in model Right-click, Properties > Display > Advanced turn onProfiles or any other element traits.
11. Pan around a pivot pt Select "V" and pick point on screen. Then pan around thatpoint by holding down CRTL and middle mouse button and moving mouse.
12. Switch views To switch between views, press "Ctrl+Tab" on your keyboard.
13. Create Part View Right-click on part. Go to Create view > Part basic views

14. Zoom to part from report Highlight report item. Hold left mouse button whilepressing the "f" key for 1 second. The part highlighted will be isolated in the model.Note the report must contain a part ID for this feature to work.
MODELING HINTS
1. Modeling in 2D:Model in plan or elevation view, but keeping a 3D view up as you doso. Working on planes helps minimize modeling errors by the user.
2. Modeling snaps When modeling in parts, it is good to turn off the snap to geometry /
points.
3. Modeling L to R:Model in elements left to right, front to back. It will simplifynumbering for detailer.
4. Remove weld symbols Right Click Redraw window
5. Cannot select objects Check one of the following:
Selection filter is not on standard.
Select icons are not activated. Press blue arrow icon.
You are working in a view window that was temporarily created. Go back toworking in one of the grid generated or 3D views or change the temporary view to apermanent view by removing the parenthesis around the View name in the View
Properties title.
6. Lengthen/Shorten elements
Hold down CRTL, go from Right to Left, sweep a window over elements Hold down ALT key, go from Left to Right, sweep a window over element nodes to
be extended shortened. Now the reference points are only highlighted.
Right Click Select move and type in value to extend/shorten.
7. Copy objects Activate Drag n Drop. Then holding CTRL down, D&D the items togrids.
8. Class # = What Colors?See the below

9. Recognition of attribute files In general, it is good to use underscores (_) and not
spaces in all user-defined names in the Tekla model. This includes model names.
10. Modeling- Split or Combine You can split members or combine members, even
extend members that are disconnected to make one longer piece. This can be useful after
importing CIS/2 files where the members come in broken up into pieces.
11. Modeling slab edges and openings There are several tricks which can help model inslab boundaries and openings. See the following features in the Help as well:
Edit/Polygon Cut to add to or remove slab corners
Snap to points with Ortho (press O) on. Great to use when you select a point alonga line but use ortho to define the direction.
Set start point by selecting base pt, hold CTRL key, locate mouse in direction tomeasure, type in distance, press return
Type in slab edge distances using @ x, y values in plan view
12. Functions not working (last resort) Sometimes if you open an older version model ina newer version of TS, the model does not work properly. An easy fix is to go toEdit/Copy/Model and import the model into a new model which is in the currentversion. Once saved, you are ready to go.
13. Snap Selection If there is more than one point available to snap to, use the Tab key tocycle forward through the snap points, and Shift+Tab to cycle backwards through them.
Click the left mouse button to select the appropriate point
14. Modifying multiple objects always uncheck all, so that only the properties that arechecked will change.
DRAWING HINTS1. Specify Top Beam Elevation To reference in an object TBE, you have to select User
Defined Attribute in the text attribute and type in ASSEMBLY_TOP_LEVEL.
2. Specify User-Defined Attribute value on drawings To reference in an object UDA,you have to select User Defined Attribute in the text attribute and type in
USER_FIELD_X, where X is the number of the UDA field. Some other useful names
for pulling model data into drawings
ASSEMBLY_TOP_LEVELis top of beam elevation
START_Z
END_Z
shear1is left shear force value
shear2is right shear force value
axial1is start axial force value
WIDTH pulls in the wall thickness or slab/plate thickness
3. Grids By default the letter grids go left to right on drawings, so build model longer inGrid A, B, C direction.
4. Font Symbols
Diameter symbol ALT+0216
Plate symbolCenter line symbol
-

Plus or minus symbol ALT+0177
Degree symbol ALT+0176 or 0186
VOCABULARY
1. General Arrangement Drawings Construction Drawings
2. Part Object or member
3. Park marks Object or member attributes
4. Profile Object shape or size
5. Assembly Position Typically used by detailer to define fabrication sequence ofmaterial. But this label can be used to identify members and group them by similarity(footings, columns, baseplates, concrete piers, etc.).
6. Template Tables. The intelligent tables are built and edited only in the TemplateEditor (Tools/Template)

What is BIM ?
BIM, S-BIM
Building Information Modeling
Or Structural Building Information Modeling
In the perfect world,ALL information about the building is
digitally stored in ONE 3D computer model
The model can be accessed and updated by all disciplines
(architect, engineer, fabricator, detailer, GC, owner, etc)
ALL is difficult, structural is certainly practical
What is BIM ?
BIM Definiti on
A collaborative approach where design information covering an
entire construction project is produced and managed using a single
3D model
Model intelligence ensures all components are always up to date
Current information is available to all stakeholders, all the time
Minimizes duplication of work
Helps the entire building process achieve a faster, higher quality and
richer design process

Key Points
Great example of the effective use of 3D modeling for team collaboration
3D virtual design and construction process made this project possible
Used 3D modeling to visualize, analyze and communicate the buil ding design
across disciplines and around the world
Approach to the job; computer aided communication, coordination and
construction
Collaboration began early with both the GC & the detailer pushing for sharing of 3D
electronic models between the design and construction teams
Building constructed in a virtual realm before the first construction workers arrived onsite
GC kept master digital model that included all the steel, concrete, ductwork, piping,
conduit and fire sprinklers
Key Points
GC storing the 3D models enabled them to minimize coordination-related requests forinformation
NetMeetings held every week to optimize RFI process
The teamwork approach was extremely successful. The project came in on time andunder budget
Key teamwork factors: sharing data, open communication and collaboration (viewingand sharing of 3D models for coordination)

Process benefits for VCCEP:
All parties can view the model to
accurately and quickly resolve any
problems before they appear on site
Connection designers can design more
accurate connections for messy locations,which results in significantly fewer RFIs
Model pieces are approved before 2D
drawings are produced (why waste timecreating/editing complex drawings only to find out
later that some connections are not correct)
Saves time and money

DESCRIPTION: INTEGRATION OF TEKLA STRUCTURES AND ROBOT MILLENNIUM
Integration between Tekla Structures and ROBOT Millennium improve the workflow in the design phase atengineering offices. The modeling of the physical structure starts in Tekla Structures, whereas the engineer willachieve an understanding about how the structure is put together. With loads, support conditions and otheranalysis properties set up in Tekla Structures, the model can then be analyzed in ROBOT Millennium. Afteranalysis in ROBOT Millennium, the data results, for example section property changes are automaticallyintegrated back into Tekla Structures model. As project changes occur, the updated Tekla Structures model canbe re-analyzed and incorporated into ROBOT Millennium at any time.The integration between Tekla Structures and ROBOT Millennium is done through standard Open ApplicationProgramming Interfaces (API) that enables roundtrip functionality and good maintainability of the integratedworkflow.
The information that can be transferred from Tekla Structures to ROBOT Millennium is: Nodes, members, slabs, walls, node supports, member releases, element releases Rigid links Loads, such as self weight, node load, concentrated member load, distributed member load, slab/wall loads Materials Cross sections Design parametersThe information that can be transferred from ROBOT Millennium to Tekla Structures is Changed section Member end forces and intermediate forces for all load cases Member displacements for all load cases Design results such as steel unity ratio, calculated reinforcement areasChanges of Tekla analysis model can be merged to the existing ROBOT Millennium model - for exampleregarding new members that have been added to the Tekla Structures model. Objects and definitions which havebeen added in the ROBOT Millennium will be retained.

Integration between Tekla Structures and GT STRUDL improves the design workflow for structural engineeringfirms. The modeling of the physical structure starts in Tekla Structures, where the engineer will achieve anunderstanding about how the structure is put together. With loads, support conditions and other analysisproperties set up in Tekla Structures, the model can then be analyzed in GT STRUDL. After the analysis in GTSTRUDL, the design results like section property changes are automatically integrated back into the TeklaStructures model for 3D coordination and drawing creation. As project changes occur, the updated TeklaStructures model can be re-analyzed and incorporated into GT STRUDL at any time.
The integration between Tekla Structures and GT STRUDL is done through standard Open ApplicationProgramming Interfaces (API) that enables roundtrip functionality and good maintainability of the integratedworkflow.
The main features of the integrated solution are:
Tekla Structures can transfer all multi-material objects such as members, plates and walls from the 3Dstructural model into GT STRUDL.
Tekla Structures can generate automatically an analytical model that can be transferred directly or aftermodification to GT STRUDL
GT STRUDL can transfer the existing loads and load combinations to Tekla Structures. GT STRUDL includes all functions for structural analysis, design and documentation.
