WHAT'S GOING ON WITH MY FRAMING

Working on the construction doc's starting wall framing details and the very first wall elevation is definitely not right. I honestly don't know why or at this point what to do.   It must have something to do with the way I have the foundation modeled. I have no clue where to go from here? :( Or what needs to change to fix this. The cause may also be the reason there are gaps between the exterior walls in some areas :huh: as showing in the screen capture the gap on the left is at an exterior wall but the wall at the door is also exterior no gap there but does appear to be part of the stem wall in both cases.

To me it looks like some of the foundation walls do not align with your main floor exterior walls.

That fixed the gap in the floor. Now to work on the reason the foundation is protruding into the rooms exterior walls, and the gap in the bottom of the exterior wall framing. The issue of the gap in the framing, apparently was caused by my having the wall as a "foundation wall" and the settings in the room DBX calling out the various dim's for the construction of the stem. Setting all the stem heights the same height, (although in the real world they're not the same height) and setting the floor as "Floor under this room" fixed the framing issue. It is a monolithic slab (back filled interior foundation stem walls) but the software doesn't like that apparently thus it stuck the foundation up into the rooms at the exterior walls.
