Trimble User Assistance and feature documentation

Trimble User Assistance covers the content of the Tekla Structures Diamond subscription. Note that you might not have access to all features described in Trimble User Assistance. If your subscription plan includes several different subscriptions, you can choose which one to use when you start Tekla Structures.

Preview features in Tekla Structures

Some of the features in Tekla Structures are released as Preview features.

Preview features are ready for production use, but the feature development can continue based on the feedback. The Preview features are primarily intended for evaluation purposes, providing an alternative approach to your typical workflows. We encourage you to test these features in a normal business environment and share your feedback.

NOTE: A Preview feature may be enhanced, updated, or discontinued at any time in response to feedback. Preview features are provided “as is” without any Trimble warranty or indemnity.
