For civil engineers
who design steel structures
and use program Tekla Structures
This program is a plugin (macro) for Tekla Structures which speed up modeling of slab sawings on concrete

Tekla Slab Sawing Joint
Do you frequently model slab sawings in Tekla Structures? My program can help you with this π€
β
Click on the slab β my macro inserts sawing elements and creates cuts
β
Automatic saw spacing or manual positioning
β
X and Y axes
β
Help labels displaying area and ratio
β
Easily accessible tools on the contextual toolbar
π Support for both metric and imperial units
π² Reduce project costs by speeding up Tekla modeling
How it works?
1. Start the command “DDBIM Slab Sawing Joint”.
2. Click on the slab.
3. Edit the positions of automatic saw cuts β drag an automatic saw cut to change it to “Fixed”. You can delete fixed saw cuts. Between fixed saw cuts, the macro creates “Automatic” positions at equal distances that are smaller than the maximum distances.
4. You can edit parametrers from contextual toolbar (ctrl+k)
You can enable / disable sawings on X, Y axis
Drag any automatic sawing to fix its positions - you can avoid colisions
You can add custom geometry sawing
Area labels prevents you form making to big squares
Ratio labels
Slab rotation to make proper coordinate system
