Girder over which Beam extends to cantilever designed as compositehttps://communities.bentley.com/products/ram-staad/f/ram-staad-forum/218610/girder-over-which-beam-extends-to-cantilever-designed-as-compositeIn the scenario attached, Girder #1 is under the Beam #2 (and other parallel beams) cantilevering over it. If the whole floor systeme is modeled as composite, how is the Girder #1 being designed as composite beam? Since the deck would not be over it,en-USTelligent Community 12RE: Girder over which Beam extends to cantilever designed as compositehttps://communities.bentley.com/thread/668388?ContentTypeID=1Wed, 25 Aug 2021 18:33:59 GMT6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:0221bb7d-712b-453d-b949-0cc3eb79e6c3Nik<p>Aah!

If the girder is really to be dropped, make it non-composite.&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
