How could modelling beam witn variable section?, for example a beam in start point have 0.6 m (depht) and finish point have 0.2 m (depht), keep width constant.

Dear warcorsario,

You should use multiple beam elements with varied depth, i.e. divide the beam element to more elements with different dimensions, in order to model the whole member.
