What Tekla has done for this new release is add tools to help reduce the amount of manual clean up needed on GA drawings. This level of automation is hardly surprising, as much of the work done by fabricators or contractors is based on project-specific templates and is highly repetitive.įor engineers, things are a bit different, as they spend a lot of time producing GAs, and as each project varies, often working with different architects, it’s hard to build true automation into the process.
All the user needs to do is a little bit of tidying up and sometimes none at all.
Simply create a model, hit a button and the software automatically runs off all the drawings. Tekla Structures might excel at delivering construction ready 3D models, complete with every nut, bolt and weld, but the 2D drawing is still considered to be the bread and butter deliverable for the AEC industry.įor some time now, Tekla Structures has offered optimised drawing production for fabrication drawings, including pre-cast, cast in situ and steel. It also demonstrates how important the humble 2D drawing continues to be. But the latest 2019 release shows there is still room for innovation.
With Tekla Structures being one of the most mature structural BIM tools on the market, by now one would think it would have 2D drawing production nailed completely. The new Revit Geometry Export tool allows firms to comply with mandated deliverables without having to invest in a license of Revit Structures
