Technic question: how to connect 2 technic beams

Ok...  I have a question that may just show my ignorance... but I'll ask
anyways.

I have a need to strongly connect two technic beams (one on top of each other).
Simply attaching them on top of each other (with Lego studs) is not strong
enough for my use.  I am assuming that I need to somehow brace them through the
side holes but can not figure out how.

I need there to be just the two technic beams and can not space them with Lego
plates so I can not seem to strengthen them with liftarms as they don't fit
nicely with just 2 beams.  (ok... at least I don't know how to make them fit).


Any of that make sense?

Any help would greatly appreciated.

(...) put the two [LDrawPart 3703] one on top of the other. On the middle of the top one put one [LDrawPart 3700], on it one [LDrawPart 3023] and on it one [LDrawPart 3700]. The hole in the top [LDrawPart 3700] can now be braced to the bottom beam (...) (19 years ago, 5-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

(...) Do the two beams need to be studded? Bracing two studless beams could be a lot easier, not as high either. If you can show us what you are trying to fit this into, I'm sure someone here will come up with the solution. :) Cheers, Chris. (19 years ago, 6-Oct-05, to lugnet.technic)
