Användbarheten av Tekla i Betongkonstruktioner : En jämförelsestudie mellan två modelleringsprogram

Sammanfattning: This thesis has examined the Tekla Structures modeling software and answered the question of whether it could act as a suitable modeling program for the design department at Bjerking AB in Uppsala. The method used in this work is a case study of a previous project with existing basis to work form. The demarcation of the study was to examine only the usability of the foundations of in situ concrete.  The work examined three main areas within the design process. The first was to model the concrete elements then to model the reinforcing and ultimately production of the drawings. Because Autodesk Revit was the existing modeling program in the Department conducted the evaluation as a comparison between the two programs. The condition was that all three main parts would be made in the same program.  The results showed that Tekla Structures has great potential in the field of concrete modeling, and that it is a suitable modeling program to use for projects thats include foundations in situ concrete. The study has also shown the programs benefits to model reinforcement in 3D in these types of projects.
