Tekla Software Price3/26/2021
With our licence we have configurations for steel, engineering, rc and precast.This is not an official translation and may contain errors and inaccurate translations.

I am about to make a very arrogant argument in hopes to change the minds of Autodesk. ![]() Fabtrol to purchase Tekla thus creating kiss documentation for fabrication. Tekla Software Price Software Near 100KThis is an electronic bill of material that is created automatically out of Tekla but I do this using a prog called softscan) Fabtrol selling the software near 100k (thats not try out and hope it works cash). Because of this, Autodesk is about to loose the steel detailing market completely. Tekla has started at my customers with Fabtrol and is forcing my hand (and 28k out of my bank account) to keep my customer happy. This means I will not be able to ever implement my Revit software, why would I practice at 3D modeling a building and then I get to do it again for the detailing software. So what Youre a detailer, irrelevant to the BIM process The architect is not going to locate the steel. For the obvious reason they dont do steel.) The engineer no longer puts any dimensions on drawing (this is in most all the contracts now; they refuse to be responsible for steel location). Now it comes to me, im number three in this chain, without me creating a set of steel erection drawings this vital link required to make any of this BIM philosophy work will fail I have to be in the chain. I to repeat I will not become part of this chain unless this prog can do what 7 or 8 others can do without errors or problems. By exempting steel detailing from the future of Revit, Autodesk have in fact killed Revit. There is no other outcome possible oh it may take a few years of people creating there own 3d drawing wonder when will I get this promised composit file I heard about in the beginning. But it will never show, because guy number three has been removed from the chain. It is an AutoCAD steel modeling and detailing extension that does all the numbering, drawing creation, NC codes, etc. It uses KISS format and has a direct link to Revit Structure. ![]() The AutoCAD Revit Structure Suite now includes AutoCAD Structural Detailing, enabling: o Steel and reinforced concrete detailing and shop drawings o State-of-the-art formwork drawings. In a few days Autodesk will release new software dedicated for Steel and Reinforcement Detailing. If you wish to share your experience and you are still interested in steel detailing and using Revit, please contact me directly on this e-mail address: Dariusz.Kwolekautodesk.com. Only last week we were sent check it out, looks like they are having a big push on the engineering side. I am of the thought that if they continue to sell their product under the cloak of being BIM, many businesses will invest a lot of money and be very disappointed in the next 5 years.. Also the freedom of choice has been enforced by the inception of the IFC format. Also often the Architectural information is far to inaccurate for the Engineer to use so the process of remodel is often adopted and this is sometimes the case at Fabrication level, however we have found a number willing to work with us because we use Tekla and can effectively provide the As Built information. With regards to Tekla 2 years ago i would have agreed but not anymore. Their strength was in the steel detailing market but this has now shifted focus upstream.
