To Summarize the user interface in TSD with the for the following items

INTRODUCTION :

Tekla Structural Designer is an integrated model-based 3D tool for analysis and design (of both concrete and steel members) in multi-material structures.

Features include interactive modeling, automated structural analysis and design, drawing, and report creation.

Multiple design codes are supported:

ACI/AISC
Eurocodes
British Standards
Indian Standards
Australian Standards

The aim is to allow you to rapidly build your model, apply loads, and design the model for an appropriate set of design forces.

On a day to day basis, you do not need to be involved with the underlying analysis models to achieve this. Instead, you can focus on the design results.

To make this possible, Tekla Structural Designer automatically creates and analyzes multiple solver models, each one being based on a different but widely accepted approach.

By designing for the forces from all the solver models, you can be confident that each scenario has been catered for.

PROCEDURE :

1.) Project Workspace – How to access and usage

Open the tekla software
Open the new file at left top corner
After create a new model work space. they shown the tool bars and work tools on the screen main menu
Also they have shown the struture template and properties template on the left side of the screen
In the fresh screen they shown only home and windows tab on top screen

2.) Scene Content – Demonstrate the use of scene content

Here the scene content option automatically shown on the right side of the screen
The scene content option will be used for hide and visible of the materilas like grid, point, members, dimension etc...,

3.) Create two scene views

When we open the tekla software the two scene views not shown automatically on the screen
So we want to open the new file with help new option
After the new file will be opened. the two scene views shown automatically on the screen
And then one is 2D view
And then onather one is 3D view template

4.) Loading drop list- How to access

After the new file has been opened
The screen left side they shown the structure table box
In the box they have some option on the bottom
Use the 3rd option (Loading) to open the loading mode
In the loading they have two types

1.) loadcasese

2.) combination

5.) Properties windows – how to access and usage

In order to open and close the properties windows , go to the window tab and select the property window option on the left top corner and open or close it

RESULT :

As per the given question

Project Workspace – How to access and usage
Scene Content – Demonstrate the use of scene content
Create two scene views
Loading drop list- How to access
Properties windows – how to access and usage

The given access and usage are modeled successfully

2. Create a new file in TSD and set up the settings for a steel building to have member grade FE410 and concrete grade of M30 as per IS codes. The covers for the members to be as per the following input: -

MEMBERS	IN CONTACT WITH GROUND	ABOVE GROUND
Column	50mm	40mm
Slab	30mm	25mm
Pile cap	75mm
Foundation	50mm

PROCEDURE :

Open the tekla structural designer software
Click the new model option
The project workspace is now active as shown and all the ribbons and menu bars are visible
Go to the home tab
select the material option, and select the head code india
And select the material type steel
Again select the material option, and select the head code india
And select the material type concrete and concrete type normal
Select the default grade Fe410 W/A
Go to the home tab and select setting option
And edit the values in the structure default

RESULT :

As per the given question

MEMBERS	IN CONTACT WITH GROUND	ABOVE GROUND
Column	50mm	40mm
Slab	30mm	25mm
Pile cap	75mm
Foundation	50mm

With reference to the input drawing as per Attachment 1, 1.1, and 1.2 and study the steel building plan and summarize your understanding of the plan. Based on your study assume and explain the location of columns and beam and develop a hand sketch for each plan

The valuse of slab, pilecap, column, foundation given successfully

3. With reference to the input drawing as per Attachment 1, 1.1, and 1.2 and study the steel building plan and summarize your understanding of the plan. Based on your study assume and explain the location of columns and beam and develop a hand sketch for each plan

AIM :

To study the steel building plan and summarize your understanding of the plan. Based on your study assume and explain the location of columns and beam and develop a hand sketch for each plan

PROCEDURE :

In here we want read the architecture plan first
And just imagine and rough diagram of the plan
Just draw the rough beam and column using hand or any software
And also draw the rough diagram for given elevation diagram

RESULT :

As per the given question

The rough plans and models are created successfully

4. Model grid lines and construction levels as per Attachment 1. 1.1 and 1.2. All dimensions are in mm

The base level to be 500mm below ground level.

AIM :

PROCEDURE :

Open the Tekla Structural Designer Software and the Software will open as follows
Now click on new option to create a New Model Work Space
Next we can select the model tab
And select the construction level
After select the construction level the construction level dialouge box as been opend
Use the insert above option and create floor levels
And select the types like T.O.S, T.O.F, S.S.L
Give the value for spacing distance
Use the grid option to draw the grid on the screen
And use the parallel quick and perpendicular option to draw
After complete the grid diagram use the dimension option to draw the dimension
finally completed the model
