Automatic Timber Member Design for Sustainable Wooden Structures

As engineers need to consider more sustainable wooden structures Tekla Structural Designer and Tekla Tedds combine for effective, automated analysis and design of timber columns and beams. For both US head code and Eurocode, this new bi-directional link is a practical design solution that is easy to use but comprehensive. Calculations to support timber element design can be generated within Tekla Tedds. Section sizes calculated by Tedds can be returned to update Tekla Structural Designer models. Design communication drawings, reports, and design intent models are easily produced using Tekla Structural Designer. Tekla Structural Designer LT, which is included with every Tekla Tedds subscription, enables easy wooden structural elements modeling to use this bi-directional link.
