I have a situation where I have a concrete slab with a beam spanning between two columns and cantilevering from one side picking up a column. How do I define the column that bears at the end of the cantilever is SAFE? When I try to define a wall or column and try to delete the properties of the object below the slab, I get errors. Do I have to apply a point load representing the column load?
