Export to Tekla® Structures
The following elements have been implemented when exporting to Tekla structures:
- Concrete beams and columns of CYPECAD, and concrete bars of Metal 3D and integrated 3D structures of CYPECAD. The elements that are exported have rectangular, circular, T or L sections.
- Special extruded aluminium sections
- Trims at hollow section ends processed by the new Joints V module.
These elements are exported as macros type “Tube-Saddle+Hole” for versions 15.0 SR1 and 16.0 of Tekla Structures.

Plane assigning to the tops of walls
Horizontal or sloped planes defined in the Sloped floor slabs/El. Changes (Column Definition tab > Groups > Sloped floor slabs/ El. Changes) can now be assigned to the tops of walls. This way, the user can assign an elevation change or a slope to the top of a wall even if it does not support a floor slab.

Lateral buckling of the top flange of steel beams
In previous versions, CYPECAD checked the bottom flange of steel beams not supporting floor slabs on that flange along their entire length, such as for example: beams below slabs, isolated beams, beams next to openings, or beams whose top flange projects above the floor slab.
Checking of both webs is activated in the Options for steel beams dialogue box which can be accessed from the Job menu in the Beam Definition tab > Beam options > Steel beam options.
