CYPECAD was brought about to carry out the analysis and design of reinforced concrete and steel structures, subject to horizontal and vertical forces, for houses, buildings and civil work projects.
Its use guarantees maximum analysis reliability and the best drawing design, including the following elements:
Export to Tekla® Structures from CYPE 3D, CYPECAD and Integrated 3D structures of CYPECAD
CYPECAD, Integrated 3D structures of CYPECAD and CYPE 3D (32 bits) can export the analysed and designed structure to Tekla Structures (versions 12.0, 12.1, 13.0, 13.1, 14.0, 14.1, 15.0 SR1, 16.0, 17.0, 18.0, 19.0, 21.1 (32 bits)).
As of the 2019.g version of CYPECAD and CYPE 3D (64 bits), the analysed and designed structure can be exported to Tekla Structures (versions 21.1 (64 bits), 2018, 2018i and 2019).
As of the 2020 version of Tekla, which allows for IFC files to be imported, communication will only be possible via the import of IFC files that are generated by the 2021 or later versions of CYPECAD and CYPE 3D.
External loads acting on the structure can be introduced in CYPECAD, CYPE 3D or the Integrated 3D structures, so to obtain its optimum design in accordance with the selected code. Additionally, using the Joints I, Joints II, Joints III, Joints IV and Joints V modules, construction details of bolted and welded connections of rolled and welded I sections can be generated.
All this can be exported to Tekla Structures and obtain a 3D model in the program with:
Rolled sections
|
Welded sections
|
Cold formed sections
|
This way, the project designed by CYPECAD, CYPE 3D or the Integrated 3D structures of CYPECAD will have all the facilities and possibilities offered by Tekla Structures available:
Export to Tekla Structures is done using the option File > Export > Tekla Structures in both CYPECAD and CYPE 3D. In CYPECAD, all the Integrated 3D structures are exported at once to Tekla Structures.
There are two options when exporting to Tekla Structures:
Complete detailing of the structure, including joints (Export to Tekla and Joints I, Joints II, Joints III, Joints IV or Joints V module required)
Export to Tekla Structures includes: the geometry of the job, the steel sections of the types listed in the Exported elements section and the detailing corresponding to the steel elements designed by the Joints I, Joints II, Joints III, Joints IV and Joints V modules (depending on the Joints module acquired with the user license). The welds designed by these Joints modules are also exported. Tekla Structures can read them if the version in use is greater than v 14.0. The job and joints must be analysed before exporting to Tekla Structures.Requirements for exporting to Tekla Structures
The following aspects should be taken into account for CYPECAD or CYPE 3D to export to Tekla Structures:
The Tekla Structures Viewer, Project management and Draughter modules cannot import the information provided by CYPE 3D, CYPECAD or Integrated 3D structures of CYPECAD.
