    -SSAB_RRPileMicro for small diameter driven RR pile sizes RR75-RR/RRs320
    -SSAB_RDPileMicro for small diameter drilled RD pile sizes RD90-RD/RDs320
    -SSAB_RRPileLarge for large diameter driven RR pile sizes RR400-RR1200
    -SSAB_RDPileLarge for large diameter drilled RD pile sizes RD400-RD1200
    -SSAB_MicroPileCap for standard pile caps
    -SSAB_PileWallRoute for RD pile wall
    -SSAB_PileForWall for single pile in RD pile wall

All new components and library files are available through Tekla Warehouse, the Tekla Structures BIM storage.

Compatibility with old version

Version number of the updated component is 2.0. The changes especially for standard pile caps have been so extensive, that component is not anymore compatible with older versions.

If you have been using old version of the components in some projects, you should complete those projects with that component version. New version should be taken in to use with new projects.

Version number of the component in use is now also visible at the top of the component dialogue.
