TIP: webinar on the new interface

Watch our webinar about the new interface of SCIA Engineer to get familiar with the new layout, improved hotkeys and selections, tips and tricks,...

TIP: user configuration templates

Try our new user configuration templates for the new interface of SCIA Engineer to get familiar with the possibilities of the new interface (placement, settings and filters of the components of the interface, population of the toolbars, population of the marking menu and hotkeys). We created 4 templates to start from: templates for steel, concrete and scaffolding workflows & a template for transition from the old interface.

DESCRIPTION

The SCIA Engineer open platform offers CAE with a unique consistent structural and analysis model for concrete, steel, composite, aluminium and timber structures. The analytical model in SCIA Engineer can be exchanged with certain CAD programs through a very specific plug-in.

This page describes the exchange with Tekla Structures. The exchange can go from Tekla Structures to SCIA Engineer and from SCIA Engineer to Tekla Structures.

How to install the SCIA Engineer - Tekla Structures link?

  • Install Tekla Structures on a certain pc.
  • Install a setup from SCIA Engineer on the same pc (this can be an unlicensed setup).
    • Use 'custom installation'
    • Make sure 'Tekla plug-in' is ticked on.
  • Install the required license esa.22 or sen.12 on the same or a different pc with SCIA Engineer to exchange the intermediary .s2t file.

How to use the SCIA Engineer - Tekla Structure link?

  • For instructions about export and import use the document Manual for the respective version of the link from the Setup section below.
  • Example of usage can be seen in this webinar

Description

The SCIA add-on provides you with the option for direct analysis model export from Archicad to SCIA Engineer. The add-on runs SCIA Engineer from within the Archicad environment using the “Open in SCIA Engineer” command. SCIA Engineer starts automatically, opens a new project with your analysis model inside and you can proceed to structural analysis and design. In “SCIA Engineer Export Settings” you can select which SAF translator you want to use for export.

How to use the add-on?

  • Download the installer
  • Install the add-on
  • In Archicad, open File > Interoperability > SCIA Engineer connection and export your analysis model
