This section explains how to create and view details using Tekla Structures. It also gives you some techniques for fine-tuning the part shape.

You can create and view details, for example, the following ways:

• create bolts, studs and holes

• create welds and define how they appear in the model

• create fittings, cuts and part chamfers to refine the shape of a part, and to fit beams and columns and also contour plates, slabs, and panels to each other

• add surface treatment to parts and surfaces to part faces

• modify adaptivity of the details

• show all the detailing that belongs to a part
