How to connect the beam to the column without gaps

Hi, Revit community,

 

Is there a way to remove the gap between the foundation beam and the foundation column?

I already tried looking on the properties palette to see if there was an option, but all I see is y and z justifications. 

 

I just want to remove the gap, could you please give me some advice on how to adjust it, I also tried changing the material on the beam to match the column, but the gap was still there. And when I tried to join them  I get a message that says that they are already joined.

 

Thank you

Betcha yours is reading "Wood". Choose "Concrete".

I tried editing the family but it was in concrete, I changed to precast concrete to match the column.

But the gap is still there

Man, I though for sure that was it.  Well, I guess no parade for me tomorrow. Arrgh!   Post the file if you want.

 

One more thought: any nested shared  components in this booger?

Thanks @barthbradley I was looking for that option in the properties palette and could not find it, I thought it was only for steel beams.
