Zusammenfassung:	A system and method are disclosed for additively manufacturing a component that includes placing a primary insert and a first support insert into corresponding indentations in a build plate of an additive manufacturing system, forming the component on the primary insert with the component having at least one overhang located above the first support insert, and forming a first support structure on the first support insert so as to be beneath the at least one overhang with the first support structure configured to support the at least one overhang. The method also includes, after the component has been formed, separating the primary insert from the first support insert such that the first support structure is separated from the component.
