Latvia can be proud of its engineers, because the competence of leading engineers allows to develop a high-quality BIM model, thereby promoting the competitiveness of companies outside of Latvia as well. Leading engineers choose Tekla Structures as a quality BIM model development tool.
Tekla Structures is a BIM (Building Information Modeling) software designed specifically for modeling and detailing building structures. Tekla Structures is a multifunctional 3D-modeling tool, giving you the opportunity to work in a 3D environment and, using ready-made tools, quickly and effectively create accurate BIM models based on architectural (2D or 3D) and / or calculation models.
In the development of technical projects, where high detailing is not required, Tekla Structures has provided a cost-effective configuration that enables engineers to quickly achieve the desired result – not only the BIM model, but also drawings and material specifications – and communicate effectively with architects. For such purposes, Tekla Structures is used by engineers from companies such as BKB, IG Kurbads, Būve und Forma, ARA Intellect, DWG and engineers from other companies, including those operating as individual traders.
As the project (BIM model) develops, Tekla Structures enables engineers to develop LOD400 or production documentation (MKD, DZBD). For such purposes, Tekla Structures is used, for example, by engineers from UPB Group companies (Dzelzsbetons MB, RK Metāls, Aile Grupa, etc.), Skonto Group companies (Skonto Prefab, Skonto Plan, Forta Prefab, etc.), engineers from Consolis, SBC, Deprom and other companies .
Tekla Structures is also used by engineers in construction companies. Engineers of the Archers construction company use Tekla Structures to create Constructable BIM models, helping to better understand project solutions on the construction site, as 3D information is more visible and allows for “virtual construction” before starting real construction work on the construction site.
Tekla Structures is also used in bridge design, and Rail Baltica’s LOD400 BIM requirements can be achieved faster than any other software in Tekla Structures. Tekla Structures works together with the parametric design tool Grasshopper (from Rhino 3D), giving the opportunity to create an algorithm for generating the bridge model, including the creation of reinforcement.
The engineers of the Vektors-T company used this technique in the design of Vienības gatves overpass.
Latvia’s leading engineers choose Tekla Structures because it has been proven that productivity benefits in the development of construction project and production documentation outweigh implementation costs and provide short-term and long-term benefits. As the number of Tekla users grows, you too have the opportunity to join the circle of Tekla Structures users.
If you also want to work with Tekla Structures, the most suitable tool for structural engineers, contact us to start implementing the program in your professional everyday life. It is not for nothing that the leading engineers of Latvia choose it. Apply for an online (or face-to-face, subject to safety measures) consultation, during which our engineers with more than 10 years of experience will help you find the most appropriate program configuration and help you implement it in your everyday life.
