Connection - 3 Plates

Is the following connection available as a macro?

 

It is two beams with end plates bolting through another plate (shaded grey).

Hi Harry,

 

Can't find a single macro to do it all but you can use a combination of two.

 

Start with 'Post double beam' & follow it up with 'Double sided end plate' to connect the two beams to the vertical plate.

 

hope this helps

 

Geoff.

Thanks GMDS.

 

I tried it with a plate but the macro doesn't let me select it - it wants a beam.

I then tried a flat bar instead of a plate, and it almost worked, but returned an 'invalid pointer'.

Ive created a user joint, see below screencast. Maybe a way to do it rather than use 2 seperate joints.
