Support Beams?

[tdubwow]

How exactly do you make these? I have excess of every material required, and have crafted every possible tool (I believe) Any help would be appreciated.

You build them in the smithy, once you have discovered the "woodworking techniques" technology. They require metal sheets, so you must discover the "advanced casting" technology first. And lumber you have to import by doing a mission or scavenging.

I'm having the same issue. I have all the materials but for some reason the dwarves wont get the copper sheets. I have plenty of them. I have the wood. I gave them all blacksmith hammers. I don't know what i'm missing.

Same here
tons of materials but they refuse to make them Beams

Yeah, we have a bug with this. Fix coming in the patch!

Choose the beam when crafting and look at the material list in top left corner of the smithy.
You will probably have a single metal sheet selected, change it to the second option (your crafted sheets).

Problem is that the first metal sheet you craft (or find) is being calssified as different than other ones. That's why your dwarves will bring that one, standalone metal sheet and wait untill you get the second one, but you never will because that is the only item classified as "different" metal sheet.

Sorry but when is the patch coming? Still having issues with making it. It's still just pending in the Small Smithy
(Yes I have all the mats and researched everything in the mountain lore)

We are waiting for the localization to come in. If you want to try it before it is properly tested and done, you can opt in to the experimental branch.

Did this never get fixed? I have both Woodworking Techniques, and Advanced casting, and neither of those show that I’ve unlocked the tech for Support Beams…

They are hidden behind a 4 tier tech

To unlock that technology he need luber tech also... And I recommend to plant "cave mushroms" to collect wood.
