Using Polybeams rather than Curved Beams when modelling in Tekla (if NC files are required)
Have you ever created NC files for curved beams in TEKLA? Generally, if you want to create an NC file for curved beams, the beams should be modelled using the Polybeam option. Because TEKLA will not create NC files for curved beams if you model them using the curved beam option. Let’s consider the…

D NUT BRACING OR CLEAT BRACING?
A lot of fabricators prefer D Nut bracing over cleat bracing because it is much simpler and cheaper. If the engineer has specified cleat bracing the detailer must investigate whether a D Nut bracing will be sufficient. If yes, then please RFI the engineer with D Nut bracing proposal. The fabricator could prefer this connection.…

Modeling Cage Bolts
There is no need to spend a lot of time trying to model bolt cage accurately if the drawings can be annotated to get the final accurate final intent Here I am showing an example of a bolt cage. There is not need to model the helix to avoid the clash. No one can make…
