DEFINING SHORTCUTS
If you frequently use certain commands,
assign keyboard shortcuts to them. You will
find it faster than using the icons and menus.
To assign a shortcut to a command:
- Click Tools > Customize... to open the
Customize dialog box.
- Click on the command on the list on the left.
- Use the Filter list box to find commands
easily. Click the down arrow to select subgroups
of commands. ALL displays all the commands
available in Tekla Structures. You can also type
in the command name to search for commands.
- Use the Shortcut fields to assign a shortcut
to the command. You can use a single letter, or
combine a letter with the Shift, Alt or Ctrl key.
- Move the command to the Menu list by clicking
the right arrow. This will activate the shortcut
and also add the command in the User menu.
- Click Close to exit the Customize dialog box.

1 Basic Modeling 1
We will go through the basic functions of Tekla Structures: How to create a new structural 3D model, and how to create grids (i.e. module lines), grid views and structural members in the model. As a result of this lesson the model will look as shown below.

1.1 Start Tekla Structures
To start Tekla Structures, click the Windows Start button. Navigate through Programs > Tekla Structures > Tekla Structures enu Europe. This will start Tekla Structures in European environment using English language.
The modeling user interface is now opened. At first, most of the menu options and all the icons are gray indicating that they are inactive. When you open an existing model or create a new model, the icons and available menu options become active.
Start Tekla Structures

Cyan dash-and-dot lines show the projections of the grids which are visible on the view plane. Tekla Structures indicates the work area of a view using green, dashed lines. For more information, see: Help: Modeling > Getting started > Basics.
Save the model To save the model:
- Select File > Save from the pull-down menu or click the Save icon in the Standard toolbar.
Remember to save your model every now and then, and always when opening another model or exiting Tekla Structures.
Tekla Structures includes also an auto save feature that backs up and saves your work automatically at set intervals. These are set in the Autosave properties dialog box obtained from the Setup > Autosave… pull-down menu. For more information on saving and auto saving, see: Help: Modeling > Getting started > Basics > Saving a model and exiting Tekla Structures Most commands of Tekla Structures are found both in menus (main or pop-up) and in toolbars (icons). In this training manual we will mainly use the pop-up menu to activate commands.

There are several ways to execute commands in Tekla Structures:
x Icons x Commands in main pull-down menu x Commands in pop-up menu By default all the commands are found in pull-down menu, and most of them in the icons. A pop-up menu appears when you click the right mouse button (right-click). If you have an object selected, the commands on the pop-up menu relate to that object.
For more information on Tekla Structures screen layout and toolbars, see:
Help: Modeling > Introduction > Screen layout

- Click Modify to apply the new grid values.
- Enter the grid file name, GRID1, and click the Save as button to save the grid values for later use. The settings are saved in the file GRID1.grd, which is stored in the attributes subfolder of your model folder. For more information on grids and dialog box buttons, see: Help: Modeling > Introduction > Inputting information > Common buttons
The number of decimals used in the Grid dialog box (as well as in other modeling dialog boxes) can be controlled from the Units and decimals ... dialog box obtained from the Setup pull-down menu.
When the grid was modified, the work area of the view, shown with the green dashed line, was not updated.
Fit work area To fit the work area according to the modified grid:
- Click the view to activate it.
- Right-click and select Fit work area from the pop-up menu.
The view should now look as shown below:

1.4 Create Plane Views along Gridlines
We will now create Elevation and Plan views along the gridlines created in the previous section. A view is a representation of a model from a specific location. Each view is displayed in its own window inside the Tekla Structures window. Each view has a view plane on which the grids are visible and points are represented as yellow crosses. Points outside the view plane appear as red dots. For more information, see: Help: Modeling > Getting started > Views.
Create grid views To create views along gridlines,
- Select one gridline.
- Right-click and select Create view > Grid views from the pop-up menu to open the Creation of views along grid lines dialog box.
- Change the View properties as shown above and click the Show… button of the XY view plane to open the View properties dialog box.
- Change the View depth values as shown below and click OK to close the dialog box.

- Select the view(s) you want to display or hide.
- Use the arrows to move view(s) from left to right (visible) or vice versa (invisible).
Do not keep too many views open at the same time. Nine is the maximum number of open views. You can open or close named views by clicking the Open named view list icon. Delete unnecessary views from the view list. To switch between views, press Ctrl+Tab.

Rotate the model You can rotate the model in a 3D view with rendered view type.
- Press the key v.
- In the view, pick a center of rotation.
- Hold down the Ctrl key, and click and drag with the middle mouse button. With the shortcut Ctrl+P you can change the view angle between 3D and Plane, which is very useful.
Change between 3D / Plane

- In the 3d view, pick the grid intersection A-1 to create the footing.
- Create the rest of the 1800*1800 footings at other intersections of gridline A by picking each position. Help: Modeling > Parts > Part location > Position on work plane Help: Modeling > Parts > Part location > Position depth Help: Modeling > Parts > Part properties > Profile
You can undo (and redo) previous commands one by one since the last save by clicking the icons or typing Ctrl + Z (Undo) and Ctrl + Y (Redo).
27002700 footing* While still in the command,
- Complete the Pad footing properties dialog box for a 2700*2700 footing as shown below and Apply this. The footings on gridline B need offsetting from the gridline because there will be additional columns modeled afterwards. This offset will be accomplished by adjusting the Vertical Position value in the Pad footing properties dialog box.
- Create the footings at intersections of the gridline B.
- Right click and select Interrupt to end the command.

The commands will stay active until you interrupt them. To end commands, right-click and select Interrupt from the pop-up menu, or press the Esc key. To restart the last command used, press Enter.
Foundations for silos – parametric profiles
We will create two identical circular foundations for the silos. At first, one foundation will be created at the coordinate 4500,4500,0 and then the other foundation will be created as a copy of the first one. Tekla Structures contains standard (library), parametric, and user-defined profiles. For the foundation, we will use parametric profiles. Help: Modeling > Parts > Part properties > Profile Help: Modeling > Settings and tools > Appendix A: Parametric Profiles
Create footing 1. Double-click on the Create pad footing icon.
- Complete the Pad footing properties dialog box as shown below and click Apply.
You can select the profile for a part from the Select profile dialog box that opens next to the Profile field in the part properties dialog box. You can as well enter a profile name in the Profile field in the part properties dialog box.
