Featuring complex geometry, with nearly all edge columns of the curved façade raking in two directions, the construction of the new Maggie’s cancer care centre at the Royal Free Hospital demanded an integrated approach. With the design and installation sequence communicated predominantly in 3D, William Hare made use of a wide range of digital tools and platforms.

Trimble has revealed the 2024 updates to its Tekla software for constructible BIM, structural engineering and steel fabrication management.

Frameclad used Trimble’s Tekla Structures software during the delivery of the ‘Chocolate Factory’ mixed-use development in North London. Located in Wood Green, the project contains office, studio, workshop and residential…

Featuring a striking canopy structure, the River Ness Hydroelectric generation project is both a geometrically complex build and also a key part of the local infrastructure. Hasson Engineering Solutions needed Trimble’s Tekla Structures to bring the complex vision to life.

Steel specialist SH Structures faced many challenges when modelling, fabricating, supplying and assembling key parts of a footbridge in north-west Glasgow for Scottish Canals and Balfour Beatty.

Trimble BIM ambassador Leif Granholm offers his vision of an open-standard framework for 3D modelling data. He says we need to think about data flows not just data storage.

Trimble has revealed the 2023 updates to its Tekla software suite. The updates bring improvements to Tekla Structures, Tekla Structural Designer, Tekla Tedds and Tekla PowerFab.

Parametric design can offer many benefits to engineers, yet widespread adoption still remains to be achieved: why?

Accuracy and 3D coordination were essential for the design of temporary works for a £250m project that features London’s iconic Piccadilly Lights at its core.

The Hux Shard – the star of the most recent series of Channel 4’s Grand Designs – presented a challenge for structural engineer, TWP Consulting Engineers.

Taking a Design for Manufacture and Assembly approach is necessary to ensure successful offsite construction.
