Sub-Beam Reinforced Concrete Beam-Floor Combination

Hello, I am trying to pass the floor space consisting of reinforced concrete beam and reinforced concrete slab as composite slab, but the connection issue has turned into a complete nightmare, whichever combination I throw creates a problem, it either creates a compatibility problem or gives tension control inf on the anchor zone bolts. Can you suggest a way to model this in idecad. Thanks. .
 
Hello there; First of all, if the surrounding beams are reinforced concrete, the composite flooring only transfers load to the steel. Only the load can come from the steel sub-beams defined on the reinforced concrete beams. Consider this situation. The geometries and reports of the connections are arranged for steel - steel elements. Therefore, although some combinations are suitable for modeling with reinforced concrete - steel, you cannot see appropriate results in the reports because their reports are not suitable. In this case, you have to calculate the combinations manually. You can use the Butt Plate slip joint by defining it yourself. It will only come in handy for drawings.
