Stair Connections - Beam Unknown Entities

Lingwisyer — Thu, 25 May 2023 14:41:55 GMT

Hi all,

I appear to be getting some odd extras generating when I use a Beam structure for my stairs. It only occurs to the bottom of the stair when the support connection type is set to Horizontal or Vertical Connection...

On a side note, when I set the lower landing connection type to Automatic Cut the beam will penetrate through the top of the landing.

Hello Ling,

We looked into this and it revealed several issues with horizontal and vertical cuts of stair beam ends. For now, you can just use a different geometry (so it wouldn't be cut horizontally), and then make the cut with Solid Element Operations.

Regards,

That is indeed what I have resorted to.
