Hi,
Please see attached for my first attempt at the 4.0 vignette. Any comments will be much appreciated. Thanks!

Doesn't work.
3. However - Don't forget to carry this middle column on the South wall of the upper level down to the foundation on the lower level. I don't think columns can bear on beams.
Correct.
4. Question: I did not put a beam on the first floor at the West side of the Covered Entry (East side of Common area), but I see that you did. It is not needed for joist bearing on the 1st floor, so did you add it to carry the weight of the upper wall? Do we need to do that?
Yes and yes.
