Trimble Connect vs. Tekla Structures

Trimble Connect is an open, cloud-based common data environment (CDE) and collaboration solution for global commercial building, civil construction, and geospatial firms. It provides value across the entire construction project lifecycle, from design teams finding fewer clashes and faster reviews to fabricators having constructible models and smoother coordination. Trimble Connect allows teams to: -Store, organize, and manage version-controlled files across teams. -View, inspect, and overlay over 60 industry file formats—including 2D drawings, 3D models, and point clouds.

Tekla Structures, a foundational piece of Trimble’s construction software portfolio, is built on decades of deep expertise in structural engineering and detailing. Serving a global community of detailers, structural engineers, fabricators, and contractors, the platform provides a unified digital environment for managing structural data. Whether working with steel, precast concrete, cast-in-place concrete, or mass timber, users rely on Tekla Structures’ robust, proven technology to manage their most demanding projects.
