Trimble today introduced Tekla® Structures 21, the latest version of its Building Information Modeling (BIM) software for the engineering and construction markets. With advancements in interoperability, drawing control, usability and performance, Tekla Structures 21 improves industrial and commercial construction project workflows across construction disciplines. The new version delivers benefits to structural steel and precast concrete designers, detailers and fabricators, concrete contractors and general contractors, and enhanced collaboration with Mechanical, Electrical and Plumbing (MEP) design engineers, architects and others. "After a decade in use, Tekla Structures continues to further the evolution of BIM from an experimental to an essential part of designing, engineering and building all types of buildings and structures," said Risto Räty, executive vice president of Tekla and general manager of Trimble Buildings' Structures Division. "Tekla Structures 21 reduces the time between concept and construction by enabling more advanced project team collaboration and productivity—enabling free flowing communication between all project stakeholders

CL3VER releases CL3VER 3.0, the new generation of the platform dedicated to engineers, architects, and other design professionals. 3.0 a much improved version of the CL3VER platform that includes WebGL GPU-based real-time lightmap technology, V-ray material support and a new scene sharing system that will speed up the production workflow for cross platform interactive 3D presentations. WebGL GPU-based Real-Time Lightmaps Complementing a huge jump in rendering speed resulting in the platform supporting much larger scenes, CL3VER 3.0 introduces a new proprietary automatic real-time lightmap rendering solution that drastically reduces the rendering time required by traditional visualization techniques from several hours to just minutes. This GPU-based Real-time rendering technology does not rely on any specific hardware to work. From the most powerful dedicated GPU to a traditional integrated GPU the CL3VER lightmap system is consistent on both Windows and Mac. This disruptive technology provides instant feedback on changes to lights and global illumination lightmaps by

CCE announced that small and medium-sized businesses are successfully leveraging Dropbox and the free CAD viewers on CCE Labs for managing product data and documents in their organizations. At a time when a lot is being written in the press about new cloud solutions for engineering data management, CCE announced that a majority of its SMB industrial customer base is leveraging existing software for product data management. "As part of our engineering design services business, we deal with a lot of SMBs in the Midwest whose size does not justify investing in an expensive PDM solution. However, they have enough product data in their organization to make version control and back-up a nightmare. These customers are leveraging Dropbox and CCE's free CAD viewer software, Express 3D and EnSuite-Lite, to essentially CAD-enable Dropbox and manage product data across the organization; this is a pretty smart move in our opinion," said CCE's Vice

Engineers using the newly released ANSYS® 16.0 in combination with powerful Intel® Xeon® technology can realize a 300 percent decrease in solution time – helping them to innovate and bring new products to market faster. The ANSYS and Intel partnership ensures that simulation engineers performing structural analysis can expect seamless high-performance computing (HPC) operations with multi-core Xeon E5 v3 processors and many-core Xeon Phi™ coprocessors. The result is the ability to run multiple, incredibly large simulations rapidly — which is becoming standard when developing today's innovative products. "ANSYS 16.0 provides the accuracy, efficiency and robustness required for engineers to generate proven designs as quickly as possible," said Wim Slagter, lead product manager for HPC, at ANSYS. "We've worked in tandem with Intel to optimize ANSYS software for the architectural changes in the new processor generation, so customers can leverage HPC technology to incorporate more-complex models, whether using finer meshes or investigating nonlinear behavior." Because simulation times can be reduced with Xeon processors

The biggest construction company in Sweden has started a strategic partnership with BIMobject AB. The partnership will allow Peab to access BIMobject’s innovative technologies. Peab will now be able to create a better information flow within the building process by creating smart objects containing information, for design solutions, to make their BIM process even more efficient. The partnership enables a fixed standard for the information in Peab’s objects that BIMobject develops. It contains the associated data required for the design- and construction process which in turn can be imported into other BIM integrated softwares in a standardised way. For Peab, the standardised object-information will be in one place and Peab can trust that this information is accurate and has the right intelligence. Peab will also use BIMobject’s cloud solutions to create, distribute and maintain objects, data and analytics efficiently; not only for Peab’s building solutions but also for a wider architectural- and
