New possibilities with embodied carbon assessment and reporting

The Embodied Carbon Calculator featured in Tekla Structural Designer 2021 was well received. One customer said: “We were quite impressed with Tekla Structural Designer taking into account the exact reinforcement in slabs, calculating the metal decks volumes correctly, and considering shear studs.”

Now, we continue to enhance features for viewing, reporting, and sharing carbon data in Tekla Structural Designer 2022.

Fully automated Minimum Wind Loads ASCE

Previously, when ensuring that ASCE7 minimum wind loads were catered for, you had to access reports, manually add the average loads for windward and leeward, and compare to the minimum for every load case. The process is now entirely automated, and minimum wind loads are automatically considered.

New Orthotropic properties for slabs

Different stiffnesses can be set for the two orthogonal (X and Y) directions for a slab, thus making them orthotropic. You can model slabs that exhibit orthotropic material properties and are assumed to behave in a predominantly “one-way spanning” manner. For example, precast slab units, profiled steel decking, timber decks on floor joists, and cross-laminated timber (CLT) elements).
