Manage labor groups

Labor groups define the different labor types being used in an estimating job. All labor times defined in Tekla PowerFab, except for the erection and detailing times, are assigned to a particular labor group.

Tekla PowerFab already contains labor groups for labor types such as cutting, cleaning, or loading. You can view and modify the existing labor groups in the Labor Group Maintenance dialog, or add new ones according to the needs of your shop.
