Beam elements and blast

      Hello everyone.
      Could you please tell me how to simulate an explosion near beam elements?
      If I use DATABASE_BINARY_BLSTFOR, it doesn't record the explosion distortion data. The LOAD_BLAST_ENHANCED and LOAD_BLAST_SEGMENT maps are also useless for beam elements.
      Which maps should I use?
      Thanks.
