April 16th 2007 DESCRIPTION: INTEGRATION OF TEKLA STRUCTURES AND STAAD Integration between Tekla Structures and STAAD improve the workflow in the design phase at engineering offices. The modeling of the physical structure starts in Tekla Structures, whereas the engineer will achieve an understanding about how the structure is put together. With loads, support conditions and other analysis properties set up in Tekla Structures, the model can then be analyzed in STAAD. After analysis in STAAD, the data results, for example section property changes are automatically integrated back into Tekla Structures model. As project changes occur, the updated Tekla Structures model can be re-analyzed and incorporated into STAAD at any time, while changes from STAAD can re-update the Tekla model and engineering drawings. The integration between Tekla Structures and STAAD is done through standard Open Application Programming Interfaces (API) that enables roundtrip functionality and good maintainability of the integrated workflow.

The main features of the integrated solution are Tekla Structures can transfer all objects such as members, plates and walls in different materials the 3D structural model into STAAD. The analysis is started Tekla Structures can generate automatically an analytical model that can be transferred directly or after modification to STAAD STAAD can transfer the existing loads and load combinations to Tekla Structures. STAAD includes functions for optimization and analysis of the structure. Tekla Structures can use the optimized cross-sections from the STAAD analysis model The engineering drawings can be produced at any time from Tekla Structures The end forces transferred from STAAD can be used by Tekla Structures for further connection design and detailing. Changes of Tekla analysis model can be merged to the existing STAAD model - for example regarding new members that have been added to the Tekla Structures model. Objects and definitions which have been added in the STAAD will be retained.
