ANSWER:
If the user wants to model a Beam Section which is not part of the Beam Section Library then the user needs to follow these steps to add Custom Beams or Girders.
1) Once the Conspan is open then the user needs to Click on Libraries option and from the Drop Down menu he/she needs to select Beam Sections option.
2) The user can also Click on "Beam Section" Option on the Toolbar.
3) In the new window " Beam Section Library " the user needs to select the Girder/Beam under the TYPE option.
4) For this example I'm selecting I-Girder and under ITEMS the user can either COPY the existing Section ID and modify the Properties or can click on ADD button.
5) In the new window the user should input the ID name and add some Description For Ex : CUSTOM I GIRDER .
6) Then the user needs to input the properties of the Beam/Girder.
7) Then the OK button needs to clicked.
8) The new Section ID will be Saved.
9) Finally the Library file should be Saved.
