How to connect beam and shell in Pro/M?

How do I connect a beam to a shell? Is this possible in Pro/M? I wish to make a "rigid" connection between a beam (along its length) to a shell.

    If you use the edge of the surface, or the curve which defines the surface as the beam, then it will automatically be connected to the shell along its length.

    Yes, there were no problems at all in making the connection between shell and beam (W2, integrated). However it seems a little difficult to get a good numerical convergence - but this might be due to my model. Thanks a lot!
