How do people deal with beams and floors in cast-in-place construction.

As you can see, the beam and the floor intersect. I can join them and it cleans up correctly, but I have about a half dozen beams on each of 70 levels, so I'd be joining all day. Furthermore, we don't know the floor build-up yet, so I'd probably want to offset the beam below the floor finish.

So what do you do with cast-in-place construction and this detail? Thanks.

Only join where you cut your detail sections or show detailed 3d views - not the whole project.

So this way of modeling CIP concrete floors and beams is typical to have this overlap? I'll go ahead and join where I need to, just seems sloppy. Oh well. Thanks for the response!
