Tekla Structures BIM (Building Information Modeling) software is the most efficient way to produce and deliver all types of precast concrete elements at the right time to the right place by integrating design and detailing with manufacturing and project management.
Enabling error-free detailing and easy change management, the Tekla model can be used to support the entire precast workflow from sales and bidding, cost estimation and conceptual design, to detailing, integrated manufacturing, erection and project follow-up, as well as for site management. Using Tekla Structures allows precast fabricators to collaborate with contractors and subcontractors to win more tenders through more efficient sharing of information. Tekla interfaces with production management systems (ERP) and automation machinery software.
Key benefits of Tekla Structures for the precast industry:
- Winning more tenders through visually presented alternative solutions and more accurate cost estimation
- Minimizing design and fabrication errors
- Error-free detailing and easy change management
- Integration with fabrication
- Erection and site management
Integration with other systems and materials
Tekla Structures software allows integration with other systems, such as precast production or resource planning and machine automation systems as well as company-specific solutions, through Tekla Open API™ application programming interface. In addition, Tekla Structures easily combines precast concrete with other building materials, such as steel and reinforced concrete, to promote efficient project management and error-free collaboration throughout the value chain of construction.
