Hi @acostaU6S2R 

 

The Purlin family needs to be created as a structural framing family with the shape dimensions as shown in the link below, if the family is created exactly as these shapes the connections wont work properly.

Once you have the correct families in the project there is a whole category of cold rolled and purlin connections
