Preventing Slab from Being Supported on Column

I have modeled a floor slab with a downstand beam that intersects a continuous column. How can I prevent the slab from not resting on the column but only on the downstand beam?


Answer:

To ensure that the floor only rests on the downstand beam in this situation (Image 01), we recommend modeling a minimum opening within the floor surface; see Image 02.


In order to keep the members or the lines of the members integrated into the surface, you can apply the "Connect Lines/Members" function subsequently to the entire model at once. Thus, it is ensured that the floor slab is still on the downstand beams.
