  1. What do you mean with "join"? Connect both elements in model? Nested family? Merge them in one single family?

Merge them in one family. I cant mark any of tthe elements. If I want to create nested family-for example if i want to add rigel to column. in column file I cant select rigel to join. I have checked shared parameter.

Now I'm away from my PC so I can't take a closer look to the families. But everything points out that you will have to model the singlest element inside more complex element's family file (i.g. column in rigel file). Creating a sweep blend will solve the angled connection, use reference planes to draw profiles and control angle.

I created it as single family and its working for now. Any ideas how to snap precisely girders to bearings? I cant level them by height. 3D snap is not working.
