Hi
I suppose you use shared topology so te beams share nodes at their common vertex?

If not use that or use the merge nodes to merge nodes at their common vertex.

Finally one way to check that all is connected use a modal analysis and that will show any disconnected lines/beams/nodes.

All the best
