About the Tekla Structures Course
ABOUT THE COURSE
The Tekla Structures training at MechEase Institute builds structural BIM detailing skills from project setup to fabrication-ready outputs. You will model structural steel members, create connections, and use basic concrete modeling where required. The curriculum includes model editing and organization, structured drawing production with annotations and templates, and report generation for materials and quantities. You will practice clash detection and BIM collaboration using IFC and Trimble Connect coordination, then apply fabrication and shop detailing workflows with revision management. The course concludes with project work focused on complete detailing packages and industry standards.
