The Tekla Structures Multi-user Server is a dedicated software service that enables collaboration within a local area network (TCP/IP). The system consists of three main components: a server computer running the multi-user server ( xs_server.exe ), a file server containing the master model, and client computers running Tekla Structures itself. It centralizes model data storage, allowing multiple users to access, view, and modify different parts of the same project concurrently.

Structural engineering firms are subject to strict audits. Using unlicensed software or "cracks" can result in heavy fines and the loss of professional certifications. How to Download Safely and Legally

: While the multi-user server 2.5.0 is great for teams in the same office, Tekla Model Sharing uses the cloud, allowing global teams to collaborate without needing a complex VPN or local server hardware.
