Tekla Structures BIM (Building Information Modeling) software helps construction companies build with quality, on time and on budget; by planning, communicating and managing project information throughout the Construction Management process.
The software quickly pays for itself because management through the model is intuitive and informs proactive decision making. All the key elements of project delivery – data from preconstruction and Construction Planning through to site management – can be embedded into the Tekla model to schedule and monitor project performance from design to supply and installation. Tekla interfaces with the leading field BIM and virtual design and Construction Software to provide a comprehensive information modeling platform.
Tekla Structures for construction management is an information-model-based software solution that supports contractors, sub-contractors, and project management professionals by helping them to centralize and visualize project data. Scheduling and cost estimation and control can be carried out by an effective communication and decision-making process that results from managing the fragmented nature of both project planning and performance data.
Tekla Structures can process large amounts of model and non-model data regardless of the source. The software can be used to leverage the critical transfer of design information and planning data between design and construction teams. This clarifies communication and decision-making throughout the design, construction, and site management phases of a building project.

Salary: Am I being paid the average for this job position?
My job title is: Project Manager, I work for a Mechanical Engineering and Contracting Firm. I am in Charge of project scheduling, material purchasing, budgeting, troubleshooting. I work 40 hours a week, I have a bachelors degree in construction management, and associates degree in architectural Construction Technology. I have been out of school for 1 year now, been at this job for 1 year. I am 24 years old and am paid $43,000 a year.
I also get fulle dental, vision, and health insurance, but have to pay $27 every paycheck.
Is this making good money, or should I be making more than I already am for this job position?
I would recommend you go to salary.com, where you can enter your job title and location to see what others in your job market are making. Salaries vary widely depending on where you are, how many people with similar qualifications/jobs are in your area, and what the company required as far as education, experience, etc.
You’ll also have to consider how valuable the other benefits are to you, because even though you don’t receive them as cash/salary, they’re still worth money. For example, if you pay $27 bi-weekly for your insurance benefits, that’s $54 per month that you are spending; if you tried to get the same coverage and benefits outside of your employer, you would pay a lot more (if you could even find a similar plan you were eligible for).
On the surface, it sound like good money, but if you’re in a major metropolitan market, you’ll have to consider your cost of living as well. $43K goes further in Podunk, Iowa than it does in NYC. 
I hope this information helps. Best of luck!
Construction Schedule using Excel Template
In by gone days all a contractor had to do was give the customer good quality and good service and he/she would be set. Then set back and let your customers do your selling for you. They would tell a friend and then that friend would tell a friend. Your phone would be ringing off the hook. I remember as an Architectural designer some days I would have up to four people wanting to schedule appointments for designs. Those days are long gone! But Fear Not! Click Here For Help
