i-beam on 2 non-end supports

[boes]

Hello, how can i model a I-beam on 2 non-end supports (pin or roller) under the beam.
As a shell and as a solid?

Thanks

Marc

Depends on what you're looking for. If you want values that you'd get with standard Timoshenko beams, then you can create a beam element, the proper end constraints, and measures depending upon what you need.
