As you've drawn? Though you might need to use a multi-saw for that...

Why complicate it like that? Why not just a straight cut to place the beam on?
It's your outer corner for a conservatory and I thought it would look nicer the way I drew it.KnockOnWood said:

But sometimes there are good ways that you don't think of/know about.
Are you planning to cover the steel ridge? Maybe with a board on both the inside and outside? Then let that board also conceal the support column. In that case, you only need a regular handsaw. But be very careful with the cut that needs to support, so it stays straight/horizontal.
