I am using 2x10 Dimensional lumber, and a Structural Column here and having a real hard time getting the 2x10's to come together. It seams that it only happens around the structural column. You can see below that the 2x10's ajoin but not on top or near the Column. Do I need to turn something on/off on the column or what? Thanks for the help

unless someone else knows better, its got a lot to do with how columns and beamas are programmed to join together in revit. At this stage they don't do a very good job automatically, so you might have to play around with it for a while. Good luck =)

Perhaps you can edit the family (if option available), and see where the reference planes are positioned? Parameters (length) are usually controlled by reference planes.
