Ease of collaboration, detailed shop drawings and parametric modeling are enticing more steel fabricators to choose detailers who use Tekla Structures.
As part of the construction process, it’s up to the steel detailer to provide steel fabricators with detailed and accurate fabrication information, often in the form of shop and layout drawings. Fabricators need these details to reduce flaws and increase construction accuracy, but when a project relies solely on physical shop drawings, there are typically multiple inefficiencies and setbacks throughout the workflow. Recently, more steel fabricators have started to realize the models they receive that have been created in Tekla Structures contain data with more precision and consistency, requiring less rework on their end.
