Tekla Model Sharing
Making remote work safe and practical
This innovative BIM collaboration tool significantly increases the productivity of Tekla Structures users. It allows teams to work on the same model simultaneously without their work colliding.
Unlike other sharing technologies, this tool enables offline work, requiring an internet connection only to sync changes. Thanks to its innovative and patented workflow, it shares only the changes made in the model, not the entire model. Even with interruptions in internet connections, collaboration can continue seamlessly.

Collaborate
With Tekla Model Sharing, teams can work on the same model at the same time, but their work never collides.

Work Offline
The only sharing technology that allows you to work without an internet connection – it’s only needed when you want to sync changes.

Selective Sharing
Patented workflow lets teams only share the changes made in their model, not the entire model.
IMPROVE DATA SECURITY
A lot of effort has been put into ensuring Tekla Model Sharing’s safety.
- All data is secured using Microsoft Azure.
- Manage access rights to the model, working securely with everyone in the project.
- Subcontractors do not need to access your company network.
- Your own company admin manages projects according to your standards.
UNIQUE PATENTED WORKFLOW
When you use this tool, you work with your own local copy of the shared model and only update the changes online. This is possible thanks to our innovative technology, resulting in a reliable model.
Tekla Model Sharing saves you time:
- Each user has a local version of a Tekla Structures model on a computer or on a network drive.
- Share the changes, not the whole model.
- Because you only need to connect to the internet when sharing the changes, you can work offline most of the time.
EASILY MANAGE YOUR TEAM
Team members can work on the same project regardless of their location. BIM collaboration is practical within the same office or with subcontractors in another town—whoever is required, wherever they are working. As the project grows, you can introduce new people to the project.
With Tekla Model Sharing you can:
- Invite others to work with you on your models.
- Join the others’ shared models.
- Share the changes in models.
