Heavy Timber Beam Connections

Is there a way to clean up the joins between the beams I highlighted? They are actual structural beams and columns.

Yes. Use Cope tool and set Coping Distance to 0 from properties.

I think I am missing something. When I cope the beams it cuts like this. When I adjust the coping to 0" I get an error saying it can't cut the beams. I am looking to get a simple vertical miter between the 2 beams.

Draw a Ref. Plane at the apex, stretch the Beams to overlap and then use Cut Geometry tool to cut each Beam against the Ref. Plane.

You can play with the coping arrows to get the final result.

I usually just use the join tool and those lines will disappear. If it doesn't look good in section then I use the fill region tool and hide the model.

Is this not what you are after?

That is exactly what I am after, but I am not getting that result/ options when I do it. I think it's because the person who created this created those beams as a part of a beam system. I have disassociated the beams with the system but it still isn't working. I am going to try to recreate it as just a beam and see if I can get it to work that way.

Beams have to be co-planar to do what @ToanDN did.

So the issue was because the beam was created as apart of a beam system. As soon as I recreated the beam as a single member it mitered as expected. Thanks for the help!
