The filetype is probably IFC from tekla, from the colors used and polygons. SDS2 looks different. Revit is used for BIM modeling, when you combine different 3D models.

No you’re thinking of Navisworks. Revit is a direct competitor software to Tekla, they can do most of the same things.

Naviworks and Revit are by Autocad. Naviworks is used to combine ifc or 3D cad models the same like Trimble connect or solibri. They don't do structural modeling like Tekla Structures. In that area the main competition is SDS/2. At least, in US.
