- Open the tekla software create new template.
- open the settings under the home tab.
- then set the data as given in to the settings.


Q2.Model grids as per the attachment 2,2.1 and 2.2
- go to model tab select the grid option.then draw a grid line.
- next take quick parallel option to create remaining grids with in a given distance.
- based on the given data draw the gid lines according to their posiotions.

3. Study the layout and write a summary for general arrangement of the structure.
- in this study i locate the columns are at the corners and edges of the intersections with the wall positions.
- GRID-2 was not inthe place of column alignment .so we need to calculate the distance and draw the grid .
- i choose the primary beam positions are at the above of each wall that is shown with green colur.
- to reduce the deflection of beams we are going to add secondary beams in middle of grid -B & C.


Q4. Model RC columns, beams and slabs as per your general arrangement
- First draw the grid line side of grid -2.
- next add the construction levels with the floor height of 3.2mt.
- define the properties of elements have to insert in model.
- next model the columns beams and slab at their level and suitable locations.
- after the created model click on the validation to check any errors might be occured . if occured means correct that errors.
- finally save the model and take a snap of model.
