1.0 General information

X-Steel is a tool for structural engineers, detailers, and fabricators. It is an integrated model-based 3D solution for managing multi-material databases (steel, concrete, timber, etc.). Tekla Structures features interactive modeling, structural analysis and design, and automatic drawing creation.

3D model

Using X-Steel, you can create a real-life model of any structure, including information necessary for manufacture and construction. The 3D product model includes the structure's geometry and dimensions, and all the information about profiles and cross sections, connection types, materials, structural analysis, etc.


Up-to-date drawings

You can automatically produce drawings and reports from the 3D model, at any time. Drawings and reports react to modifications in the model, and are always up to date.

X-Steel includes a wide range of standard drawing and report templates. You can also create your own templates using the Template Editor.

Sharing models

Tekla Structures supports multiple users working on the same project. You and your partners can work together on the same model, at the same time, even in different locations. This increases accuracy and quality, because you always use the most up-to-date information.

Main features

X-Steel includes:

  • Useful modeling tools, such as 3D grids, adjustable work area, and clash checking.
  • Catalogs of available material grades, profiles, and bolts.
  • Modeling tools to create complex structures, such as staircases and trusses.
  • Intelligent connections, such as end plates and clip angles, to automatically connect main members.
  • A custom component editor that you can use to create your own parametric connections, details, and parts.
  • Integrated analysis and design with STAAD.Pro.
  • Links to transfer data between Tekla Structures and other software, such as AutoCAD, STAAD, and MicroStation.
  • Drawing wizards to create several drawings with one click.
  • Data output for CNC machines.
