Open Web Joists and Interior Elevations

Hey all, just wondering how to get some beams to show up in certain elevations. Keep in mind, all interior elevation layer settings and properties are identical. The joist is placed right under the mechanical units, as shown in the view running parallel with the joist. I've gotten the views that run parallel with the joists to show up, just not the ones that are perpendicular to them. Let me know if you guys have any ideas,

Thanks

Hi IFelix-11,

Did you check your horizontal setting? May want to check both IEs have infinite horizontal range, which includes more model elements.

You can also increase the vertical range of the IE if you want to include the mechanical units on the roof for reference.

Marc,

Both of the ranges (vertical and horizontal) are set to infinite. Quite a tricky little bugger!
