Tekla Structures 2023 release notes
Welcome to Tekla Structures 2023!
Tekla Structures 2023 continues to improve the user experience. The 2023 version makes it easier for both new and existing users to quickly learn and adopt the software’s time-saving functionalities. The upgraded user experience for working with drawings makes the software easier to learn and use.
Tekla Structures 2023 improves the project communication and advanced detailing in fabrication workflows. In rebar detailing, complex bar shape designs are now easier to communicate to procurement, manufacturing and the construction site. Our customers in steel fabrication now benefit from being able to cover even more detailing options with bolts and holes for specialized industries. The outputs and exports serving detailing for the fabrication of many project and material types have been updated too. Better project location coordinate handling, support for drawing versions in Tekla Model Sharing, and more reliable IFC export improve the project coordination and collaboration.
