Profiles across Metric and Imperial units are now managed more efficiently through a unified profile database strategy. XS_PROFDB supports multiple paths allowing one profile database while maintaining separate grouping (ProfileCatalog.Groups.xml) files for each discipline. This allows a cleaner presentation for each unit system and consistency across environments and roles.

The Reinforcement settings for drawings (rebar_config.inp) files for the Cast-in-Place (CIP) and Precast environments have been merged. This change eliminates redundancy and simplifies the configuration process for users working with rebar sets in the USA Imperial environment. The ScheduleTotalLengthRoundingAccuracy has been standardized to 12.7 mm (½"), ensuring consistent and accurate rebar length calculations across different roles.

Starting with the Tekla Structures 2026 release, the formwork extension package from the Tekla Warehouse will be integrated and installed with the US environment. This change consolidates all formwork content into the formwork package, resulting in the removal of standalone formwork content from the US environment. Users will benefit from a more streamlined installation process and easier updates to formwork tools.

The Object Unitechnik User-Defined Attributes (UDA) tabs have been moved to the end of the UDA tab list. This change was made to improve the organization and accessibility of the UDA tabs, ensuring that users can more easily navigate and manage the attributes relevant to their workflows.

Buyout user-defined attributes have been removed from the Concrete Parameters tab definition and are now located in the appropriate Buyout Management tab.

The Precast Custom Components Model Template was previously visible in roles that were not specific to precast, which could lead to confusion and misapplication of the template in non-precast projects. XS_MODEL_TEMPLATE_DIRECTORY now includes the path %XSDATADIR%\environments\usa\<unit>\Precast\ModelTemplates\ and the Precast Custom Components Model Template has been placed in the directory.

The US environment previously utilized a custom TS_Report_Inquire_Part.rpt with minor modifications. These modifications have now been incorporated into the common report to streamline future localization efforts. As a result, the US environment can now utilize the common report without requiring additional changes.

The PropertyTemplates.xml files have been consolidated across disciplines to streamline the management of property templates. Only discipline specific items are in their Property templates. This enhancement reduces duplication and simplifies the configuration process.
The common file is now stored in the directory: ..\Common\General\UI\PropertyRepository\Templates.

NC Export settings have been incorporated in all roles, including those not primarily focused on steel modeling, to enhance accessibility. The  files have been moved from the \Steel\ModelingSettings directory to the General\Collaboration directory.
