Beam to Wall Cutback

Joining a beam to a wall is achieved by drawing a beam and attaching one of its endpoints to the center of the total wall thickness.

Setback and cutback apply when connecting beams to structural walls. The beams are independent of one another, are only associated with the common wall, and will cut back from the wall accordingly. Recessing the beam into a beam pocket is possible by removing the cutback with the Beam/Join tool.
