The elevator is an object and will not participate in automatic junction (or intersection) with beams, walls, etc.

So material strengths a layer priorities will have no effect in this case.

Try just adjusting the display order forwards/backwards of the elements in section.

Thanks for the reply .

I've try adjusting display order already but still doesn't work ,

Maybe I am making the model in the wrong way , I shouldn't let the materials overlapping each other.

Maybe the only way to solve my situation is to make the beam thinner ....

The background fill used in the beam Building Material may have an 'empty' (null) pen (0).

If it does change it for a white pen or the screen pen (-1).

You may also have to bring the beam forward in display order as well as sent the elevator object backwards.
