  • Obtain design forces by replacing rectangular beams with T-Beam sections, then use property modifiers to modify adjacent shell objects such that they do not contribute the same stiffness and weight as the T-beams (not applicable to SAFE program as weight of slab/T-beam flange overlap is not double counted in SAFE). Frame forces in the T-beams would then directly correspond with composite-section design forces.
