In the steel construction industry, accuracy is everything. A minor miscalculation in materials or an overlooked design flaw can lead to costly delays, material wastage, and structural inefficiencies. That’s why leveraging Tekla Structures for Bill of Quantities (BOQ) generation, material listing, and 3D modelling before moving to fabrication drawings is essential. At SoftStudios, we specialize in harnessing Tekla’s advanced features to streamline your project workflow, ensuring efficiency, accuracy, and cost-effectiveness.

Why Use Tekla Structures for BOQ and Material List Generation?

Unlike traditional 2D drafting software, Tekla Structures offers an integrated solution for precise quantity take-offs, material optimization, and fabrication-ready models. Here’s how it makes a difference:

1. Accurate Bill of Quantities (BOQ) Before Fabrication

Generating a BOQ before fabrication ensures you have an exact material breakdown, reducing waste and cost overruns. With Tekla, every beam, column, bolt, and plate is accounted for, ensuring that your procurement process is optimized right from the start.

2. Precise Material List & Weight Calculations

Tekla Structures provides an automated, detailed material list, eliminating guesswork and potential human errors. It allows engineers and fabricators to know exactly how much steel is needed, minimizing excess ordering and reducing project costs.

3. Comprehensive 3D Modelling for Error-Free Execution

A detailed 3D model helps identify clashes and inconsistencies before sending drawings to the fabrication shop. This visual validation process ensures that every part fits perfectly, reducing rework and on-site modifications.

4. Seamless Fabrication Drawing Generation

Once the BOQ and material list are finalized, Tekla Structures enables the smooth creation of fabrication-ready shop drawings. These drawings are generated directly from the 3D model, ensuring that they align perfectly with the real-world assembly.
