Complex profile model beam gets cut off when moved upwards beyond a certain level. Thanks in advance for help.

Further to my last post. The 3d element re-appears beyond a "vacuum"
in the middle.

You will probably find there is a slab (or another element) in a hidden layer that has a stronger building material than your beam.

So you can either delete that element if not needed, adjust the building material strengths for the beam and/or hidden element, or change the layer intersection number (in the layer settings) so the two layers have different numbers (therefore elements will not intersect).

Thanks Barry, should have thought of that.
