Kinked Wide-Flange beams are common in commercial buildings.
Since they act as single framing members, it stands to reason that they should be created as such within Revit. Currently these have to be created in-place as custom families.
I would like to see a 3D sketch option in beam creation that allows this to happen for any steel profile. Would be nice if it would allow multiple kinks (ie: a continuous wide-flange stair stringer w/ 2 intermediate landings).
