Slab Deflection

This video demonstrates the new rigorous slab deflection feature in Tekla Structural Designer 2018.
The basic workflow is very simple. The underlying calculations are complex, however the implementation is not a black box. Extent of cracking, relative stiffness views and a composite modulus report allow the engineer to review every aspect of the underlying calculations. Deflection checks are performed using check lines. These automate the tedious checking that engineers currently perform by hand. The analysis is exceptionally fast and is performed on a multi-level structure that is all managed within one model. This allows value engineering to be performed. The potential for dramatic productivity improvements are obvious.
