Course Overview
The Tekla Structures Steel Detailing course by Trimble is designed for aspiring steel detailers, BIM modelers, and structural drafters seeking to master 3D modeling for structural steel fabrication. This training prepares learners for the Tekla Professional Certification at the Fundamental level, validating foundational proficiency in creating constructible models. Ideal for entry-level professionals and career switchers, the course equips students with essential skills in modeling steel components, generating fabrication drawings, and producing bills of materials. With global infrastructure projects increasingly relying on Building Information Modeling (BIM), demand for Tekla-skilled professionals is rising—over 70% of major structural steel fabricators in North America and Europe now use Tekla Structures as their primary detailing platform.
Students engage with core tools within Tekla Structures, including interactive modeling, component creation, clash detection, drawing generation, NC file export, and collaboration via Trimble Connect. The hands-on lab environment uses the official Tekla Structures software—specifically the Default or US Environment depending on regional settings—where learners build a complete structural steel model from initial setup to final deliverables. A key project involves modeling a multi-story steel frame with columns, beams, bracing, base plates, and connections, followed by generating erection drawings and material reports. Through this real-world workflow, students gain practical experience in numbering models, detecting interferences, and ensuring compliance with standards like AISC and AWS, all within an industry-aligned digital ecosystem.
This course directly supports preparation for the globally recognized Tekla Professional Certification, which requires passing both a theory and practical assessment with a minimum score of 75%. Certified professionals report salary increases of up to 25%, with mid-level Tekla detailers in the U.S. earning between $58,000 and $85,000 annually. Koenig Solutions enhances learning outcomes with 1-on-1 instructor support, Guaranteed-to-Run batches, and access to official Trimble courseware, ensuring personalized guidance and consistent scheduling. Graduates emerge job-ready for roles such as Steel Detailer, BIM Modeller, or Tekla Checker, positioned to advance into senior detailing or BIM management positions in high-growth sectors worldwide.
