FBX

FBX (Filmbox) is a proprietary file format (.fbx extension) developed by Kaydara and owned by Autodesk since 2006. It is used to provide interoperability between digital content creation applications.

The format saw wider support from other 3D software packages such as Cinema 4D, SoftImage 3D, PowerAnimator, LightWave 3D and 3D Studio MAX. Today, FBX is also widely adopted among VR applications, which are typically built on top of major game engines.

Tekla Logo

Tekla, owned by Trimble is a software product family that consists of programs for analysis and design. Tekla software includes several applications.

Tekla Structures is 3D BIM software widely used in the building and construction industries. The software allows users to create and operate 3D structural models in concrete or steel and leads them through the process from concept to fabrication.

Tekla Structural Designer is a software app for analysis and construction design. It is used by structural engineers.

Tekla Tedds is a software solution for automating repetitive calculations. It is used in engineering for creating output such as calculations, sketches and notes.

Tekla BIMsight is an application for building information model-based construction project collaboration.
