Hello, here is the Sajjad alternate for your perusal. Please let me know where I totally dropped the ball. Testing Tuesday. Thank you for your help.

For kicks I tried running the joists in the South rooms the opposite direction. Ended up adding a joist size and wasn't able to remove any beams - the one beam that changed, in the southeast corner, actually got longer. So, figure the first way is better since it minimizes the number of joist sizes.

That's not an issue. On a building of this size, efficiency is maximized by minimizing the amount of beam.

So then solution 1 is still the better solution? Were there any issues with my solution? Tried to equalize the beam lengths, like you previously mentioned.

Last time I'm messing around with the vignette software before the test, I promise. This test minimizes beam length & number of joist widths. Was even able to delete a column from the lower framing plan.
