Creating drawings

In this lesson, you will learn how to work with drawings in Tekla Structures. You will learn about the principles of drawings, how drawings and the model interact, and about drawing types and drawing levels. You will also learn to create drawings.

Key term	Definition
General Arrangement drawing	General Arrangement drawings, also known as Erection plans or E-sheets, can contain several views, which can include the entire model, or any part of it. With the GA drawings, you can create erection, foundation, and other plans, as well as details from views in the model.
Single-part drawing	Single-part drawings are workshop drawings of individual steel parts. You can create drawings of any steel part in the model. The single-part drawings can contain holes, but welded parts cannot be included. Single-part drawings can either be on individual drawings, or linked to a multi-drawing to create a gather-sheet.
Assembly drawing	Assembly drawings are typically workshop drawings, where details of an assembly consisting of steel parts are presented for fabrication. In most cases, an assembly consists of single steel parts, that are either bolted, or welded, to the main steel part. Assembly drawings can either be on individual drawings, or linked to a multi-drawing.
Cast-unit drawing	Cast-unit drawings are formwork or reinforcement drawings of reinforced concrete structures, such as foundations.
