sir, I need to model a prestressed (noncomposite) flange of the main girder is a slab without making composite section Can i define an I- section with flange 0.250 depth and use dummy traverse beam?
Question. The dummy section should be providing the stiffness of the deck in transverse direction. I think the section should be the deck for the dummy. How come you used cross girder as the dummy sections? Is it a mistake?

Thanks Moorthy, this is very good.

I agree with you, otherwise the stiffness will be wrong for transverse beams
why is deck not visible
As its a composite member, with a graphical solution of program for clear visibility of girder, so the deck is shown in transparent view.
@@mvmdil is there any option to view it as solid?
