Tekla Structures Open API

Tekla Structures Open API, also known as Tekla Open API, provides an interface for different kinds of applications to interact with model and drawing objects in Tekla Structures. Tekla Structures is BIM software for structural design and detailing.

LTC has over 20 years of experience working with Tekla and extensive knowledge of how to take full advantage of the API.  Our team is able to help your company create custom tools, scripts, and reports in Tekla that help your business run more efficiently and consistently.

Case Study

LTC Software Solutions has worked with steel fabricators to create custom reports and automation tools within Tekla Structures, Tekla EPM, and Tekla PowerFab.

We started working with LTC over 2 years ago, and they have helped us customize numerous reports from Tekla.

Being able to customize these reports, gives SME a huge advantage by providing the relevant information each department requires to execute our projects with precision – while saving us time and effort looking for what we need.

They have become an extension of our team, understanding our process and able to see the opportunity within Tekla to ultimately improve our experience – I have even recommended LTC to all companies across the SME industries team for future projects. if you are looking for a good structure team who takes the time to understand your needs look no further, LTC has what you need.
