Composite castellated beam design results and inadequacies of composite castellated beams are displayed in the Composite Castellated Beams dialog. If the sections of the secondary beams are selected as castellated beams and composite slab is defined on these secondary beams, the composite castellated beam design is used. In the Composite Castellated Beams dialog, shearing in the gross and net area, body buckling, vierendeel controls, internal force results and net moment of inertia calculation are also given.
