Tekla Structures
Optimize workflows with truly constructible design, detailing and information management. Tekla Structures, the most advanced structural BIM software, lets you create, combine, manage and share multi-material 3D models packed with valuable construction information. You can use Tekla Structures throughout the project, from buildings and infrastructure conceptual planning to fabrication, construction and maintenance, for design, detailing and information management. With Tekla Structures, you can create accurate, information-rich 3D models that have all the structural data you need to build and maintain any type of structure. Tekla models can deliver LOD 500-the highest level of development possible-making them truly constructible. High LOD, as-built models minimize costly surprises, RFI's (requests for information) and result for more profitable projects. You can also import, export, and link your data with other software solutions, digital construction tools, and fabrication machinery.

SDS2
SDS2 is an all-in-one steel detailing and connection-design software platform built to help detailers, fabricators, and structural engineers deliver accurate, fabrication-ready steel models and drawings with speed, automation, and integration. It supports modular packages, from basic 2D drafting to full 3D modeling plus shop-drawing generation, enabling users to create precise shop drawings, erection drawings, or full BIM models depending on their needs. SDS2 features automated connection design calibrated to framing conditions and fabrication preferences, intelligent clash detection, and live multi-user modeling so teams can collaborate in real time without conflicting data. It produces high-quality, code-compliant documentation and delivers production-ready output that can feed fabrication equipment or support CNC/automated workflows. SDS2 also interoperates with major BIM and fabrication-management systems via standard file formats.

ConstruSteel
Easily generate scribing lines/layout marking on steel profiles and plates for quick & easy assembly in the workshop. Advanced bar nesting software to optimize material use (such as steel beams and flat bars) for less waste and efficient production. To reduce failure costs, improve quality and speed up production, ConstruSteel provides Advanced Scribing software for steel fabricators, steel suppliers and steel service centers. Advanced Scribing is a unique Tekla Structures plug-in for scribing steel/layout marking steel beams and plates for the structural steel industry. By adding your own defined scribing/layout marking on selected or all steel profiles in your 3D BIM model, the production data (.nc1 files) for CNC machines is updated automatically.
