About the project

George Bush Intercontinental Airport's specialty lies in its vast size and capacity, serving as one of the busiest airports in the United States. Its extensive network of domestic and international flights, state-of-the-art facilities, and strategic location make it a vital hub for global air travel and a significant gateway to the United States. The scope of the work was to remodel the airport.

Challenges 

The remodelling of the historic airport posed multi-faceted challenges. From precise modelling to connections to simulating structural elements, all aspects had unique hurdles.

Benefits of using Tekla

The airport's detailing project showcased the team's dedication to precision and excellence. Utilizing Tekla Structures, the team achieved accurate connections by precisely modelling and simulating structural elements. The advanced tools and collaboration features of the software enabled the project team to analyse load transfer and behaviour, ensuring the correct selection of connections for optimal stability and structural integrity in the projects. 

Tekla has been an invaluable asset in the project, revolutionizing the way the team approaches structural engineering. Its advanced 3D modelling capabilities and BIM integration have significantly improved efficiency and accuracy throughout the design and construction process. Tekla's powerful tools enable precise detailing, clash detection, and seamless collaboration among stakeholders, streamlining the project timeline and reducing errors. With Tekla's support, the team achieved exceptional results, elevating the quality of the work and delivering innovative solutions that exceed expectations.
