xTDeckJoint

Downloading and installing the latest version will give you a 30 day trial.

This plugin creates Strip Seals and other Deck Joints, though v1.0.1 only creates Strip Seals.  This version only works in the US Imperial environment.

Please request other deck joints as you require.

Like all of Steel Tek Unlimited plugins the xTDeckJoint has a lot of intelligence built in.  As the name suggests it is can be used for all roadway and bridge deck joints.  Currently version 1.0 only creates strip seal type joints.

The plugin takes 2 points for input.  A start point and an end point.  These points define the length and orientation of the part(s) created by the plugin.

The install adds two files for importing Strip Seal profiles into your model.

  1. Strip Seals.profiles.lis
  2. Strip Seals.rules.lis

You can add them using the Tekla File>Catalogs>Profile Catalog

Then click on the Import… button and navigate to the Strip Seals.Proflies.lis to import

This will bring in the Strip Seal profiles into your catalog

We will be adding some videos of how to use it soon.
