RE: Splice Beam analysis concept
both pictures look very much the same ... the grey longeron looks teh same in both, whereas i think you mean it to be an intercostal in the 2nd (and the frames are split in the first).
0.25" shim allowance ... ??
at the end of the day, either approach will work, i'd make the more heavily loaed member continuous (and the other would become an intercostal). pay more attention to fatigue loads.
RE: Splice Beam analysis concept
It would be helpful to have a closeup of one of the intercostals and its connections.
