Type the yield strength value in the Fy edit box for the beams to be added.
Select the framing type for the beams to be added by clicking either the Gravity or Lateral option button. Note that Gravity members need not be modeled in Frame Only models.
Select the shape of the beam to be laid out from the drop-down list box: I section, Rectangular HS, or Channel.
Select the composite flag for the beams to be added by clicking either the Composite or Non-composite option button. Note that the program will automatically determine the instances in which a beam must be designed non-compositely, such as an exposed beam or non-composite deck. You need only specify the non-composite flag in cases not obvious to the program.
