File description

DB1 file format is a type of 3D model file format. This format is used by Tekla Structures.

The 3D model designed by using such file is saved with the format of DB1. This file contains the necessary information for complete description of 3D model designed. The data includes information about the structure of the object, its coordinates and surface details. The file contains all the information which is required by Tekla Structures software application to completely load and define 3D shape of the object. This file type can also be exported to other file formats to resolve compatibility issues.

Description of the problem

If you have on your computer a .DB1 file that you cannot open, you are in exactly the same situation as thousands of other people who have similar problems with this or any other unknown file.

There may be several reasons why you cannot open the file with .DB1 extension. Directly on this website you can find a solution of the most common problem with the .DB1 file – that you do not have on your computer the appropriate program to open the file.

Solution

From the list below, select the appropriate program, install it and double click on the icon of a file that did not want to open - the problem with the .DB1 file extension should be solved. However, if this does not happen, go back to the website to learn about other possible causes of the error, which have been described at the bottom of the website.

Other possible reasons why your .DB1 file does not want to open

In addition to the problem described above, i.e. the lack of the appropriate application to support the .DB1 file, there may be several reasons that cause problems with opening and operation of the data format:

1. Incorrect version of the installed application

A quite common problem is the lack of application in the appropriate version. Even if you have an application, with the help of which you should open the .DB1 file, you may have a problem with it because of its version. Perhaps in previous versions the application has not yet supported the .DB1 file, so download the update and check again.

2. Incorrect .DB1 file association with the program

If you have already installed the appropriate application, and it is the correct version, the file may not open correctly, because the operating system does not have information that this program supports the file. So you need to "show" which program the computer should use. To do this:

Right-click the .DB1 file
Go to the "Open with" - then "Choose default program ..."
Locate the appropriate application
Click "OK"

3. The file is corrupt

It also happens that the file you want to open is corrupt and therefore there is no such possibility. In this situation, you should find its different version, or ask a person from whom you got, to send it again.
